Reservation is our personal choice

:am_based_kar:Against The Hegemony :am_based_kar:

Talking with a fellow redditer in the group brought the below thought:

Will the baamans remove there Janeu because we strongly say these rituals are causing deeper problems of discrimination in the society? Just like how they love to throw there opinion on reservation even when no one of us gives a damn about them.

Generations of humiliation for our people as brought in damages wrt self respect which people are still struggling to build (i.e one of the main reasons for RESERVATION), Social equality is not equal to economic equality. Social equality is still a far dream for even an above poverty line Dalit family. Even Dalit CJIs, politicians, bureaucrats, well to do in the community are not spared from casteism.

And also, the best option is always to ignore talks on reservation with these people when we certainly know it is a one way road. And to be vocal on it where we have our voices heard.

It's our personal choice and we don't have to talk about it.
