The case which is being made out by UPA minister Meira Kumar for increasing % of reservation for SC in view of the increase in their population is a wrong move. The emphasis should be to ensure that benefits of reservation should reach all SC. There is a large section of SC which is still waiting for benefits of reservation to reach them and large number of seats reserved for SC are still vacant. The creamy layer in SC, to which Meira Kumar also belongs, is blockiing reservation benefits from reaching the needy in SC communirty.
Government should come out with details of how many SC have been benefitted by reservation in last more than five decades. These people should be excluded from taking amy more reservation benefits. With these people out of beneficiary list, the increased population can be easily provided reservation benefits, without increasing reservation percentage.
