BATTLE OF THE CASTES (Time 1 June pg14)

It is good to have the rigid caste system abolished ever since India's independance. The country would be able to develop more effectively when important roles are allocated to people due to their merits and not by caste.

However university places are still reserved for those at the higher castes. I guess much as the government is doinf its utmost, the caste system will still be there as it has been around since soo many years ago. Perhaps what the government is trying to do is to allow the new generations to start anew and be able to mix around. By then the caste system will not be much of a problem. hopefully.
