A humorist's school of thought....

Mention the word "Reservation" to any Indian student in his college years, the first thing that would come to his mind would be, the drama that is staged by various political partys that is reflective of the igorance of the government to formulate a concrete policy therby hampering the nations progress. Although, I dont much agree with the latter part of the sentence, i came across a very interesting and humorous comment on "New avenues where reservations can be provided."

The author notes that the strongest points that act in favour for providing reservations in India are
1) Equal representation from all the stratas of society.
2) Compromise quality for equality and development of the society.

With this in mind he has an excellent sugestion to make..

He says why not implement the reservation policy on the Indian Cricket team instead of implementing them on Private sector jobs and Central Institutions. He notes that this would be expedient for the government in two ways.

1) The question of quality deterioration does not arise.
2) The people who get reserved would earn more from one match, than what they would earn in a lifetime if they go the governments way.

This rule will be best served only if you implement it on a series to series basis.The BCCI must give everyone who has applied for those reserved posts a chance to play thereby providing for their development .


Cheers,
Misnomer.
