Reservation Issues in India:
If nothing more, atleast be a leader!


Reservation or No-Reservation:
I am not going to debat for or against the reservations here
[ Though being fair, my personal opinion is that government has focused on too much on the means rather than the end. So, whats the end? The end goal should have been: "make it a better place to live, for everyone". This end goal can be achieved using thousands of methods, and reservation is hardly a good choice ]


Atleast be a leader!
The interview of the Congress HRD minister, Arjun Singh, done by Karan Thapar is one of the most spoken lately. Its surprising that the person who brought the reservations up being clueless:

Reading it, I felt: If you could do nothing else, be a leader - be vocal and supportive of what you do and believe


Dirty Politics!
I guess thats how politics work.. Arjun Singh through his one simple interview achieved multiple goals:
  • He made sure that Manmohan Singh is to be never remembered as the reformer of Indian economics anymore
  • He has also made sure that Congress does not win the next round of elections. And guess what - the blame goes to the people whom Karan is taking orders from!
I guess the politics motto: If its not me, then noone else!
