It is said that life teaches us more than our textbooks can. Well that's true! I know that I'm going to express my thoughts on a very serious issue(which considering my age I shouldn't). But I'm expressing my opinion. There are chances that the ones who read this won't agree with it.... But I'm extremely sorry in advance if I've hurt anybody's sentiments through it.
Yesterday when I was standing in a que to seek my admission, a man in the next line was filling his daughter's form. Out of curiosity and nothing else to do than wait,I peeped into what that man was writing. He had ticked some reserved category. For a moment I was shocked because the man was looking like a literate+he had a IPhone(His economic background was good). At first I decided to ignore it but then I thought about the fact that did that girl really deserve that reserved seat?
I'm not saying that reservations are utterly and totally wrong. But when the law regarding reservations was made, the condition of the society was not that developed as it is today. Then why on earth do the people who have all the comforts need those reserved seats?? Though we people are living in the 21st century our mindsets still are of the 19th century. We people are literately illiterate.
Last seat in college:Merit fails, Reservation /money wins. That's the reality.
What matters should be YOUR merit, YOUR efforts..... not your caste.
We youth have to be the change, we are the ones who should say no to scholarships if our family can afford our education easily, we should say no to reservations if our economic background is good, we have to be the CHANGE.
To end with, I would like to quote Harivanshrai Bachchan ji's poem-
जीवन पथ जटिल है ये, कालचक्र कठिन है ये,
पग-पग पे भेदभाव है, रक्तरंजित पाव है.
जन्म से ही किसी के सर वंश की छांव है,
झूठ के रथ पर सवार डाकुओं का गांव है.
किसी के पास है छल-कपट, तो किसी को रुप का वरदान है,
ये सोच के मत बैठ जा कि ये विधी का विधान है.
बज रहा म्रिदंग है, ये कहता अंग-अंग है,
कि प्राण अभी शेष है, मान अभी शेष है.
उठा ले ज्ञान का धनुष,
एक कण भी और कुछ मत मांग भगवान् से.
ज्ञान की कमान पे लगा दे तू विजयतिलक.
काल के कपाल पे लिख दे तू ये गुलाल से,
'कि रोक सकता है कोई तो रोक के दिखा मुझे,
हक़ छीनता आया है जो अब छीन के बता मुझे. '
ज्ञान के मंच पर सब एकसमान है,
विधि का विधान पलट दे वो ब्रम्हास्त्र ज्ञान है.
तो आज से ये ठान ले, ये बात गांठ बांध लें,
कि कर्म के कुरुक्षेत्र में
ना रूप काम आता है, ना झूठ काम आता है,
ना जाति काम आती है, ना बाप का नाम काम आता है,
सिर्फ ज्ञान ही आपको आपका हक़ दिलाता है.
