In national interest, scrap quota in higher education institutions: SC



Emphasising what the apex court held 27 years ago, the bench said it is now “inclined” to convey the same message to the central and state governments over reservation in institutions of higher education.

Regretting that some “privilege remains unchanged” even after 68 years of independence, the Supreme Court held Tuesday that national interest requires doing away with all forms of reservation in institutions of higher education, and urged the Centre to take effective steps “objectively”.

A bench of Justices Dipak Misra and P C Pant noted that despite several reminders to the central and state governments to make merit the primary criteria for admissions into super-specialty courses, the ground reality remains that reservation often holds sway over merit.

“The fond hope has remained in the sphere of hope… The said privilege remains unchanged, as if (it is) to compete with eternity,” the bench remarked, adding that it concurs completely with what the Supreme Court had ruled in 1988 in two judgments.

Now Modi has said something like 'scrap reservations over my dead body'. So what doubt is there? Constitution provides for reservations but it does not talk about "merit" being the criterion anywhere.
 
Modi is an intelligent politician; he knows the Modi Masthan art of covering the majority vote bank.

Modi has made a number of initial mistakes in Bihar and he/BJP realized these mistakes only recently. Modi, now, is trying to make up but in Bihar, caste is also a very strong factor outweighing the Modinomics of development, employment, digital and so on. Hence, we have to await the results day.
