Reservation in Educational Institutions



#SSC-CGL2018 #SSC-CHSL2018 #IB #SBI-PO  (250 words)Important Topics for SSC, IB, BANK



Reservation has always been a hot topic to debate. Since its enforcement in independent India through 'constitution', it has found many critics. Reservation based on 'caste' and 'religion' in premier educational institutions is an endless debate. While some question its merit, others back the long-persecuted sections.


Post-independence constitutional thinkers tried to include vulnerable sections to the mainstream and to accomplish that reservation based on 'caste' was added in the constitution, later many economically backward section found its place in the list. This was primarily to benefit those people, often from backward classes and tribals but political influence made it an insincere move. Today every academic institute irrespective of public or private has a reserved share of available seats for SC, ST and others. Many scholars believe this to be a degradation of educational values, some of those are internationally acclaimed like IITs, IIMs, AIIMS and NITs. While this is true to some extent, activists argue the merit, backward classes are often kept outside the purview of elites and they lack the resources to compete with them. To compete in a national platform, one needs more than merit, good education and quality coaching to sharpen their merit are necessary. While educational institutes can fill the gap by coaching those from economically backward students to bring out the excellence, corporates and alumni can raise fund to achieve it.


Reservation is always perceived as detrimental to moral aspect as it gives a due advantage to certain classes but it has a social aspect too. Only quality education can replace the need for reservation.
