i always believed that that reservation should be given but it should be strictly for those who actually need it.i am particularly satisfied with this clause of the honorable supreme court "Children of former, current MPs and MLAs will be excluded from the quota list" at least few of the more needy will get a chance for higher education.but i actually want some thing more than this there should be no reservation specially on the basis of caste,creed or sex the basis should be the need.There should be some reform to find out whom reservation should be given.but i am very happy with the beginning.hope for much better to happen.so celebrate the beginning.
