After reading the interview, Arjun Singh sounds like a total moron and retard. Atleast he should have done his homework before he showed up for the interview.
Thats the pathetic state of our 'Member of Parilament'

I would ask this: If IITs can have reservation, why not Indian cricket team? Why not head of ISRO? like 4/11 ppl in a cricket team should be from OBC/SC/ST - no matter whether (s)he can hold a bat or stand properly... Why not put concession on passing marks for OBC in lets say medical exams... Com'on shouldnt they be given chance to become good doctors and 'save' lives?
how about every 4th PM should be an OBC candidate - no matter what? Please dont take my comments directed towards any caste/sect of people, but I am irritated by the most stupid people of earth in the most imporant positions... Again, no offense to any people/caste/creed/etc., and I always like to respect people, not something that divides them!

Some More Questions for Mr. Arjun Singh and the govt.
1. When do we plan to have OBC reservation in parliament? If not then why NOT? 2. Do we have long term Roadmap on our Reservation Policy? 3. What about the existing reservation policy? Has there been any review? Has this method benefited the deprived? If it has benefited then shouldn't the exisintg percentage of reservation go down? If it has not benefited then shouldn't the policy be revoked and some new methods found out? 4. Is caste the only measure to find out people who are deprived in our society? What about girls, handicaps and economically weaker sections of the society?

Arjun Singh and other politicians like him is enemy of mother India; they should be remove from the ministry. Mr. Manmohan Singh ji one of the few politician I would like to salute but due to Mrs. Sonia Gandhi all these are happening. British controlled India, by divide and rule formulae. Mrs. Gandhi is also trying to do the same. All of us from private sector companies should contribute one day salary for this fight.

If I want to summarize the interview… He was saying following
I DON’T KNOW ANYTHING… I DIDN’T HAVE ANY BACKGROUND INFORMATION ON TOPIC….AND AS I AM A MINISTER I CAN MAKE A JUDGEMENT WITHOUT IT
OF COURSE I WANTED ALL THE CREDIT ….SO I ANNOUNCED IT AND GREATEST OF ALL EVERYBODY BUT POLITICIANS ARE CORRECT (EVEN IF FACTS SUGGEST OTHERWISE) AND I AM CERTAIN OF IT.

during my graduation, my classmates who came under quota were the sons and daughters of - judge, commisioner of police, GM of a PSU, senior engg in thermal plant,one of the biggest business man of tht city.NOW GIVE ME THE LOGIC OF RESERVATIONS. and from the interview itself it is clear tht the minister in question is either not knowledgable abt the subject or is trying to hide something. and if they are hell bent on reservations, then i will like to give a suggestion. WHY should we reserve only jobs and education?move ahead reserve music, arts, movies sports, politics, AIR, FOOD, SKY, WATER, ROADS and everything possible into the respective quotas. BUT AFTER THT PLS MAKE ANOTHER AMENDMENT IN CONSTITUTION, " TAKE THE WORD SECULAR OUT OF IT." and provide all those who love their country a piece of moon. THANK YOU "GOVT OF INDIA" ( before i end i must ask PRESIDENT OF INDIA & PM OF INDIA - two of the best minds in india- pls tell me why you have not said anything concrete in this subject so far. are you so much attached to your posts?

200 yrs ago. the british used to divide the people on the basis of religion and castes and rule over them. they supressed the people who tried to explain their feelings using lathi charge and violence on people involved in peaceful rallies. Now IN MODERN INDIA TODAY THERE SEEMS TO BE NO CHANGE. ALL THE ACTIVITIES LISTED ABOVE ARE STILL PRACTICED BY THE GOVERNMENT. I STRONGL FEEL WE NEED ONE MORE MAHATMA TO GIVE US FREEDOM. COME UP IF ANY PATRIOT STILL EXIST. JAI HIND

There is surely a political motive behind this decision.It is going to bring down the quality of our living,this is absolutely madening.If they are really thinking about helping the obcs then the politians who have made this decision should also have obcs doctors for their treatement.
