Letter To Prime Minister of India

Respected Mr. Prime Minister,

<>I have saluted you as Respected Prime Minister as I believe that you are truly worth respecting for enthroning the biggest democracy(?) in the world. I have ascertained that Yourself have reached at your heights by virtue of your own potential; capabilities, merit and Not by your caste or creed. Same goes the case with our Dearest president. <>

I am a Non-OBC/NC/ST responsible citizen and I do love my motherland wholeheartedly in spite of the fact that in my own country; I have been deprived of my rights and my opportunities many many times just because I don’t belong to the privileged communities outlined in the ‘gazette’. I have witnessed hundreds of much more deserving candidates losing their glorious chances of education, scholarships, recognition and employment purely because of the ‘Quota’ policies of all the governments. This, I am sure you are very well aware, is the case of millions of capable sons of our country.

We agree that our ancestors have wronged certain communities for which we have suffered more than 50 years. We also agree that reservations are required for underprivileged sections of our nation like remote rural areas, socio-economically backward classes and people from hostile lands like Kashmir/North-east. Etc. However, when a spoilt convent educated westernized youngster, born to an OBC/SC/ST father (who is filthy rich due to his default high government post and other sources of income off course!) takes away an esteemed IIT/IIM seat with less than half the score of people like us who burn midnight oil for years…the blood boils in the veins.

One doesn’t need an astrologer to predict the state of such revered institutions when such hopeless students enter the campus.

  • We don’t get jobs in Government Sector
  • We don’t get promoted if we already have jobs; in spite of being more than deserving
  • We don’t get admissions in prestigious institutions in spite of deserving to get in
  • We don’t get government scholarships
  • We have to pay heavy fees for our education and education for them is free!
  • We have one private sector and competitive exams left to earn our success and your government is taking away those opportunities by increasing the reservations
  • What do we get in our own country? Unemployment! Injustice!! Frustration!!!
<>For 150 years, British Raj followed the brilliant policy to 'Devide and rule’. The governments all over internally are not doing anything different. We endured as we have been taught to be civilized and patient. But endurance has a limit.

Two things can happen.

  1. The cream will be force to somehow leave the country for ever
  2. Just like our very own war of independence enforced many peace-loving youngsters to trigger bloody revolutions, it will lead to yet another one.

Corrupt politicians are playing a fatal game with the fate of generations to come thinking of nothing but their vote banks and they have nothing to do with the goodwill of the nation. Even a blind person can see crystal clearly their politically pregnant intentions in announcing more and more reservations.

I don’t see that day far away when all the seats of all the fields will be reserved.

And that point onwards; India’s funeral will begin. And at that time Mr. Prime Minister, her sons who could have saved her would have all settled far far away from her.

Don’t force us to hate our own country Mr. Prime Minister. Its all in your ‘capable’ hands.
