Dear Mahesh and other friends, Thanks for taking up the issue with utmost vigor. Vice Chancellor of any university can not give irresponsible statement like this. Please do let me know what is the source of information for such remarks. He spoke casually or it was reported in some newspaper or magazine. There are states where there is more than fifty percent reservation. He is nobody to interpret law. This is the function of judiciary and should be left to it . His discriminatory statement should be condemned with equal force. The three percent reservation for physically challenged is already in force. Whereas reservation for Obis is yet to be a reality. If at all there would be a question mark that would be on 27 percent reservation for OBCs not on the three percent reservation for Physically Challenged persons. If he at all makes any discrimination based on such personal presumptions he could be dragged to court. If you could get me the source for the same I could direct such remarks to the knowledge of CCPD. With regards, Vip
