The great oversight!!

Oversight is the failure to notice something. If, in management terms, government is asked as to why it has not been able to provide equal opportunities to all, the one answer can be that it was due to oversight. The government failed to notice that reservation is not yielding desired results but is creating only bad side effects, such as, creamy layer and hate between different sections of Indian society.

I am amused as the government has set up an oversight committee. What this commiittee will do? Give a report to justify the oversights (in past 55 plus years) or identify areas for future oversights.

Youth of India have identified one of the most important oversights of successive governments - not to review the short-term policy of reservation and allowing it to become an indefinite-term policy. But government has again failed to take notice of the oversight and indulged in yet another oversight- not to agree to students' demand for setting up a non-polical committee to review reservations. Instead government goes ahead and constitute a committee which it names Oversight Committe. The name is intentional or a coincidence!
