The blog's fundamental argument was about the lack of accountability in reservation as well as the use of reservation as a political tool, as a cover for the failure of governance. I think these are very valid, one need not know about the caste hegemony and the history of the same, which you concluded rather presumptuously that I am unaware of. > Yes there are some of us in this group who sincerely gasp and are terror stricken when we hear of the BJP, but that has more to do with our politics and our identities. Its the same gasp that escapes me when I see naive neo-liberal posts like this That is precisely my point - politics and identities trump everything including reality.
