[Reader-list] Protest (on April 1st) SC's stay on OBC reservationand brainstorm about how to furtherr Social Justice!

[Vedprakash Sharma]

it looks as if I went through the mail of a political leader. in my humble 
opinion, the SC has raised some very genuine objections. without a 
scientific analysis of the problem of reservation, one should not draw 
conclusions. we may have different views over it but the logic must prevail 
and the same should decide the criterion of the reservation.
