#PushingEqualityToDeath
The people who killed Darshan Solanki are the people who cannot or will not understand the difference between EQUAL OPPORTUNITY AND EQUALITY.

IIT is a tech gladiatorial arena, a place I would have happily self-confessed my inability to enter.

It is a place where the most meritorious students from every strata, are confronted with peers far more gifted than them, and an academic rigour which tests the best.
Into this cauldron, a bunch of entitled stupids decide that merit CAN BE COMPROMISED in the name of equality and push many Solankis to fight an unequal battle.

In a so-called politically correct woke world, this will be blasphemy to the highest degree.
If I wanted Dalit students to shine in IIT's/ IIMs etc I would gather the smartest 5000 Dalit students at Std V from across India, put them in residential Gurukuls, to receive the finest education... from STEM subjects to language.
The entire tab for this should be picked up by State & Central Govts.

The aim would be to ensure that these students would enter the IITs & IIMs with pride and hold their own, beholden to none.

That would be true affirmative action.
That is not the intention of the wokes..

* It is to create a new permanent entitled caste.

* To keep the meritorious in a permanent state of guilt & atonement.

* To make merit a bad word & dilute it in institutions to the point their original aims & standards are obliterated.

#ChineseSuperiority
Chinese views of India are very complicated – but generally based on a sense of superiority and self-confidence.
thediplomat.com/2023/03/how-is…
"India is the favorite of the West, while China has become the target of the West...They argued that one reason for India’s popularity is that the country is not strong enough to pose a threat to Western...if India one day becomes the world’s second largest economy
and its military strength continues to develop, then the United States will be sure to suppress India – as it is now doing to China."

"Many Chinese people are aware of the outrageous rape statistics in India, and also that some Indians used cow urine to treat COVID-19."

#LawForTheLawless

Using Law To Frustrate:

* Waqf Masjid and UP Sunni Central Waqf Board, had challenged a November 2017 Allahabad high court order, which had given them three months to move the mosque out of the premises."

rediff.com/news/report/sc…
Intentionally irrational:

"Senior advocate Kapil Sibal, appearing for the management committee of the mosque, said the mosque has been there since the 1950s and it cannot be just asked to move out."
Facts & concessions:

"the land was a lease property, which was terminated, and they can't claim it as a matter of right to continue."

"Justices MR Shah & CT Ravikumar... allowed the petitioners to make a representation to the UP govt for allotment of land nearby for the mosque"

This one article is enough to prove that @nytimes and its reporters are part of 5th generation warfare against India.
* The article blandly documents attacks against Hindus, with none of the sympathy & background it would have lavished if these were Muslims.

* The "jihadi" Muslim terrorists are always referred as "militantsm.

* The reduced but still persistent & deliberate

#KillerQuotas
The Wokeism that permeates this article is extraordinary.

I could not have got into the IIT if I had stood on my head. I was just not good enough academically.

If I had been admitted because of my caste I would have crumbled.

news.careers360.com/iit-bombay-stu…
Those who cast all kinds of aspersion on 'merit' in the IIT's should ask themselves why companies across the world beat a path to the IITs or why their alumni now head a vast number of Fortune 500 companies.

Surely, there is no world-wide casteist conspiracy.
The simple fact is that the IITs are an academic gladiatorial arena in which no quarter is given

That holds good for students of all castes.

It is preparing students for a kind of "Tech Olympics". Lowering standards of admission is the stupidest possible thing.

#RipeForReform
"let’s talk about the Honourable Supreme Court of India, where 38% of the incumbent judges have deep family connections in the Judiciary & Govt, which means 12 of 32 judges are either related to a former Judge or to a political leader."

opindia.com/2022/08/pm-mod…
"Prima Facie, it feels like Judiciary is being kept hostage by a few selected families, all because of the methodology of selecting SC Judges that is an appointment by a collegium & not by merit or any examination"

"data of HC judges also give rise to suspicions of nepotism"
"Here is the list of Supreme Court Judges who have familial connections in the Judiciary or politics:

U. U. Lalit – Next Chief Justice of India, Son of UR Lalit, former add. Judge of Bombay High Court and Senior Counsel in the Supreme Court"

Here, then, is Ambedkar on Islam:

“Hinduism is said to divide people and in contrast Islam is said to bind people together.

This is only a half-truth"
"For Islam divides as inexorably as it binds.

Islam is a close corporation and the distinction that it makes between Muslims and non-Muslims is a very real, very positive and very alienating distinction.

The brotherhood of Islam is not the universal brotherhood of man"
"It is brotherhood of Muslims for Muslims only.

There is a fraternity, but its benefit is confined to those within that corporation.

For those who are outside the corporation, there is nothing but contempt and enmity"
