RESPONSE: Now I really like this query! When it suits they cry foul and if not they take advantage of their low Caste. Surely if Caste is to be abolished altogether and we all agree it must, then it must imply a level playing field for all. Many Indians who are smart, complain that they are not admitted because someone who has lower grades belonged to a S/T. S/C or OBC, got in, because the system was discriminatory. Incidentally, it happens on similar basis here in the U.K. as well when renowned Universities were ordered to take more students from poor back grounds. The problem is, you can take the horse to the trough but you can't make it drink. -- DEV BOREM KORUM. Gabe Menezes. London, England
