Reservation were not an immediate fix, nor were they introduced in 1880s & implemented in 1900s for SC/ST. They were introduced nationally in 1932 after the Poona Pact. We wanted separate electorates, not reservation. But Gandhi threatened s word

"Mandal's OBC reservation was introduced in 1980"
The report was submitted in 1980. The reservation in colleges was introduced in 2006 & in jobs in 1992, both with creamy layer. While some small kingdoms like Kolhapur had some reservation before, this wasn't on a national level

"Reservation has existed for 100+ years"
India got freedom 74 years ago. OBC reservation came 15 years ago. Reservations don't have an exit mechanism because caste doesn't have an exit mechanism. Reservations are not helping because they are only 11% in education & 1% in jobs

"People are buying fake SC/ST certificates"
That is not our fault. That is literally UCs' fault for stealing our seats.
"What about 69% reservation in Tamil Nadu?"
Backward castes are 88% of TN population. 69% govt seats are for 88% of population. 12% UCs can compete for 31%

"You keep increasing reservation, what will happen to upper caste?"
The reservation has been increased for upper castes. EWS reservation which you have supported is ONLY FOR UPPER CASTES, with a handsome income of under 8 lakhs. But you don't have a problem with UC reservation

"My ancestors oppressed you so you are oppressing me"
You are not being oppressed by us. No one is lynching UCs, forcing them to climb into gutters & clean shit, tie pots to their necks & brooms to their backs, etc. That is oppression. Bahujans getting educated is not oppression

Most importantly, caste discrimination is not an injustice of the past. It still happens in 2021. Dalits are still getting killed, raped & lynched by upper-castes. Speaking of merit, Ravinder Singh being an author despite writing such shitty takes is proof merit doesn't exist
More facts: 46,000 crimes against in 2019. More than 500,000 crimes against SC/STs between 2006-16. 10 Dalit women raped everyday. We are still killed for riding a horse & growing a moustache. As long as even 1 Dalit is being killed because of their caste, reservation will exist.
