India 2027
The thought A garden is just a piece of land. It is its flowers, which make it beautiful. Just like a garden, a country is just a piece of land. It is its people who make it a nation. There is no garden without flowers and likewise there is no India without Indians. If India is poor it means the Indians are poor not only in terms of money but also in terms of intellect, patriotism, morality, nationalism, honesty and sense of pride and Wednesday, October 22, 2008 India 2027 responsibility.
The need
A developed India can never be achieved till the time Indians are morally, socially, intellectually, politically and economically developed. For the development of all natural and man made resources, the development of human resource is a must. This can be achieved by development of infrastructure and a planned and practical solution of Indian problems.

PROBLEM OF RESERVATION Today the Indian politics has become not a path for people’s welfare but for corruption and misuse of power. Moreover today social discrimination has already been wiped out but its palace has been taken by electoral discrimination. The problem of providing reservation to the backward castes and tribes is making Indian politics caste based. It is undoubtedly necessary to provide privileges to the unprivileged. But is it correct to provide privileges to the people on the basis of caste? Wouldn’t it be better if privileges were provided on the basis of economic condition? Wednesday, October 22, 2008 India 2027 Let’s try to understand this problem with an
Example: Let there be two boys, one who is a Brahmin and the other who is a Scheduled caste. The Brahmin is too poor to afford for a proper study whereas the scheduled caste is rich. Both of them sit in an entrance examination of a university in which there are 100 seats. The poor Brahmin boy gets a rank of 105 whereas the rich scheduled caste gets a rank of 250. But due to Indian reservation system the rich scheduled caste gets entrance whereas the poor Brahmin boy doesn’t. It is quite understandable that the poor boy wasOctober a 22,better candidate for selection but Wednesday, 2008 India 2027 instead of him an undeserving candidate got
Conclusion There
is a dire need to change the criteria for reservation from caste to economic status as many high caste people are underprivileged where as many low caste people are over privileged. Moreover reservation on the basis of caste gives rise to casteism. So reservation should be based on the basis of economic status. Wednesday, October 22, 2008 India 2027
