Punjab Da Puttar at it again...
Once a fcukwit(in the planning commission), a certified fcukwit for life!
This sh!t for brains doesn't deserve the accolades he gets and for all I care he can stuff his Oxford doctorate up his poopchute! Dirty Matherchod!: http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/a...how/291531.cms NEW DELHI: Prime Minister Manmohan Singh on Thursday favoured a "fair share" for minorities in central and state government as well as private sector jobs. Singh, who maintained that the nation "does not belong to any single race", also said young people from minority communities should be provided with skills required for employment. "It is essential that communal peace and harmony should be maintained and the minorities get a fair share in central and state government and private sector jobs," he told a conference of state minorities commissions here. Also, he said state chief ministers have been asked to put in place a monitoring mechanism over implementation of minority welfare schemes. The Prime Minister, who pointed out that a lack of access to common school system was the main factor behind the socio-economic backwardness of minority communities, said the government should work to ensure greater access for Muslim girls to professional education. "During the current plan period and the next plan period, we must ensure that concrete schemes for setting up of secondary and higher-secondary schools in blocks and districts having predominantly Muslim population are implemented for the Muslim girls," he remarked. Widening access for Muslim women to professional education, particularly to medical and engineering courses, should be a priority area of educational programmes, Singh added. "This nation does not belong to any single race, least of all any group of religious extremists. It belongs to a mosaic of religiously, linguistically and culturally varied communities," the Prime Minister remarked. Last edited by gilgamesh : 11-03-2006 at 07:13 AM. |

Your govt at work...
Sachar panel mulls Muslim quota Diptosh Majumdar CNN-IBN The panel says the non-OBC Muslim is in more degraded condition than Hindu OBC. New Delhi: The Justice Rajendra Sachar Panel report on the social, economic and educational status of Indian Muslims makes a strong case for reservation for Muslims. CNN-IBN has exclusive access to the recommendations made by the panel, which suggest that the economic status of Muslims was below that of OBcs and in some instances, even dalits. The Indian Express was the first newspaper to publish the data-based findings of the Sachar Panel. The panel says madrassa education is not the future and suggests setting up of more English and Urdu-medium government schools in Muslim-dominated areas. It also argues in favour of allocating 15 per cent of funds from different Union Ministries for the welfare of the Muslims. The panel has also recommended more representation for Muslims in sectors like healthcare and teaching, and sensitisation of all government employees towards the requirements of the community. The panel, which was appointed by the Prime Minister, will be submitting its report by the middle of this month. The big issue emerging from the report is reservation for Muslims. While the Sachar panel avoids any reference to it, its silence is more than eloquent in a chapter on the OBCs. In this chapter, the general non-OBC Muslim is shown to be living in more degraded condition than the Hindu OBC. This, experts say, makes a strong case for reservation for the entire Muslim community, barring the Creamy Layer. Insiders in the Sachar Panel have told CNN-IBN that there is a way to introduce the recommendations. Muslim intellectuals are of the opinion that out of the 27 per cent reservations for OBCs, at least 10 per cent should be reserved for Muslims (except the Creamy Layer). However, this recommendation has not made it to the final report of the panel. Recommendations of Sachar Panel Some key highlights of the recommendations are: Sachar panel finds that madrassa education is not the future. It wants more English and Urdu medium government schools in areas dominated by Muslims. It also argues in favour of allocating 15 per cent of all Government funds to Muslims under all central schemes. The panel wants more representation for Muslims in sectors like health and teaching. It also recommends sensitisation of all government employees towards Muslim requirements. But the big issue is reservation for Muslims. While Sachar panel avoids any reference to it, its silence is more than eloquent in a chapter on OBCs. In this chapter, the general non-OBC Muslim is shown to be living in more degraded condition than the Hindu OBC. Thereby a strong case is made for reservations for the entire Muslim community except the Creamy Layer. Minority benefits not trickling down: PM With a nationwide debate on the status of Muslims gaining momentum, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh on Thursday made several observations on the problems faced by the minority community. "Available evidence shows that benefits of the schemes meant for the minorities are not reaching out to the Muslim sector," Manmohan Singh said.

Why blame Congress??? BJP held power for several years and they didn't do anything about Quotas and Reservations either... Its not only the Congress, all parties are run by idiots, even the BJP (which right now is under that Advani dumbass). BJP is not the slightest bit better the Congress. All of the political system needs a revamp.

Excuse me chaps, I got a problem with you guys if you're going to insist on a blanket ban on reservations.
I'm all for reservations for the SC/ST Communities. Those people will go nowhere without the reservations, scholarships and other facilities. What the government is doing for them at this moment is certainly not adequate. Taking away reservations from them would be a disaster. Now, coming to the OBC class - I do not think they need reservations. Yet some of castes belonging to OBC sections are in a terrible state even today. Especially in rural areas and states like Orissa. So some kind of criteria has to worked out to decide if the candidate requires a seat/job under reservation. Gentlemen, the SC/ST community has done so much for our society. None of us would clean toilets, empty sewage tanks and work 12 hours in the farm generation after generation with less than adequate wages. Oh and dont forget the untouchablitiy factor. Nothing bad will befall upon this society if the sons and daughters of SC/STs are given an opportunity.It is in these people will India Shine! So no, dont criticise reservations as a whole. As for reservation for Moslems, I still do not think it will come around. The SC is around. |

![]() Quotas and Reservations do nothing for sociey except put less-qualified people in power!!! That is, if you think with a clear mind, one of the most idiotic decisions that have been made. These people have to be helped but they shouldn't be given jobs and seats even though they are less-skilled. What the government should do rather is to try to increase AID to them to help them get those crucial skills rather then giving them out jobs which could've been handled by more qualified people. If the "seats by caste" theory was used in the army, realize what a disastor that would be. The solution to the problem is for the government to subsidize the education for low-income families, open up schools for the poor people and other facilities where they can actually grow those skills as required and then be able to compete for the seats like the rest. That is a much better way then handing over the seats because they come from a poor background. Quote:

I'd love to see somebody who opposes reservations to actually go out and work it out for the benefit of the oppressed. Reality : Reservation is just one of the tools. Considering that many dalit kids are 'not allowed' to go to schools or even wear footwear in many a villages in India I think reservations for SC/STs ought to stay. I do not know about other states but here in TN education is free upto +2. |

![]() As for the army; best men for the job... just the way it should be. Favouritism by Caste WOULD be a disastor for the army, not because the people chosen are incompetent but simply because they were chosen over people who could've probably done the job better. Army style is much better, everybody competes, so even if SCs/OBCs take your spot in recruitment, you go home knowing that the best man for the job was taken; there is much more satisfaction sleeping on that then knowing that you could've probably made the cut but got cut-off to a SC/OBC simply because your caste wasn't "low enough".

Anyways, I tried changing the title. I originally wanted to use Punjab da Puttar, but Medic often refers to Tronic as such, so the alternative. ![]() Last edited by gilgamesh : 11-03-2006 at 08:28 AM. |
