The only inference now is that using population sizes of "castes" alone, parties want to subvert our democracy since politicians question even SC judgments and want to mobilize brute force based on nos. and want a review of creamy layer for its dropping or meaningless redefinition.Words like social, educational, economic, income are dragged in merely to guise for replacing democracy with mobocracy.
Ambikrishnan Friday, April 11, 2008The comments from different sections of concerned interests are just a repetition of the pre-judgment period. They do not serve any purpose now. Now that the SC has mandated exclusion of the affluent sections in the OBCs.from the quota,vigilance is warranted to ensure that this rule is not circumvented in practice, esply.since many political happy leaders have expressed unhappiness.Daughters/sons of many OBC ministers, officials,etc.would have to compete on merit for seats.
