Dear All,
The socio-economic status in India is entrapped in local culture since 1000 years or so. The political and caste system in India is deep rooted since the last more than 2000 years generating continuously ill effects in Indian social climate.Such a wonderful mix no one will find in other countries. Obviously, the solution to handle our ills rests on India rather than looking towards some other country for bench marking.
The wise Indians through Constitution put some schemes like reservations to tackle the make in India ills. Because of the public mind set like grab all benefits even if you do not need, being a high financial status, SC/ST/OBC kids of Professors, ministers, IAS/IPS Officers, businessman to exploit these benefits at the cost of another needy. This mind set need to be changed. During my carer of 45 years, I have come across only two cases who refused to take advantage of SC and ST to their kid and self, namely, one ST PhD candidate refused to apply for the post of Professor as reserved category. I think, by law the kids of businessman and high Officers be constrained to avail of the reservation categories so that his own brother/sister in real need will enjoy the Constitutional provisions. Even the RSS has got similar opinion (the sins of 1000 years cannot be washed out even in 100 years!), I got this through my interaction with them. Reservation is a necessity.

Subject: Re: [MTC Global] IITs failed 63 students in 2014-15, 57 from reserved category

~Wayne Dyer
Fiftyfive of the 63 students who failed to secure the prescribed minimum grade in six IITs during 2014-15 session belonged to the reserved category, Lok Sabha was informed today.--
"The IITs have a rigorous academic system that prescribes minimum grades to be obtained by the students for continuation in the IIT system. During the year 2014-15, a total of 63 students in undergraduate courses have failed to secure the prescribed minimum grade in 6 IITs," Union HRD Minister Smriti Irani said in a written reply.
Out of the failed students 8 were from General category, 9 from OBC, 16 and 30 from Scheduled Caste (SC) and Scheduled Tribe (ST) category respectively. The OBCs, SC and ST students constituted a whopping 87.3 per cent of those who failed to make the cut.
The minister's response came to a question about how many students had been expelled from prestigious Indian Institutes of Technology on the ground of their performance.
In an unprecedented action by any IIT, the institute at Roorkee had in July this year expelled 73 students whose performance was not up to the mark after their first-year BTech programme.
A group of 64 students had moved Uttarkhand High Court against the decision, but the court had upheld the institute's decision.
However, the institute reinstated the students in August this year as a "one-time measure" and said they will be on an academic probation throughout the year and have been re-admitted on strict conditions.
"The IIT Council has discussed the matter and implemented a system called Peer group Assisted Learning (PAL) to handhold students who are socially and educationally backward," she added.[Source: Financial Express, 21.12.2015]--EDUCATE, EMPOWER, ELEVATEProf. Bholanath DuttaVisionary Edupreneur, Founder & PresidentMTC Global: An Apex Global AdvisoryBodyin Management Education, ISO 9001: 2008Partner: UN Global Compact I UN Academic ImpactCell: +91 96323 18178 / +91 81520 60465 / +91 7411716392
