I would like to reject your meritocratic arguments fully.And i saw your the hindu letter as well.we know the first generation graduates of india's meritocracy in 19th century(-the credit goes to chandraben prasad-dalit diary).Most of those savarnna students were third rate graduates (opinion given by british professors). Your arguments are in league with thacher-regan consensus.Where is the level playing field for india's entire subarltern section of the society? --- "sreenivas v.p" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
