Ok. One more protest. "Down with Quotas"

I would like to condemn the latest decision by the indian government to have quotas for different sections of the indian community.
I am against it. It's a shame that we are going to have reservations at our premier educational institutes, instead of merit which should be the only criteria for admissions. For years AIIMS, IIT's and IIM's have gifted to the world best doctors, leaders, innovators. IITians, IIM graduates have brought both fame and recognition to these institutes, and the country. Now few people in power have decided to interfere in the way these institutes select their students to gain votes. I hope this backfires in their faces.
Meanwhile I would really like to commend, applaud students who have taken up the challenge to fight this. I hope you win.
