Reservation and Muslims

 With the recent ruling of Andhra pradesh High Court which quashed the reservation quota for Muslims in education and job once again Indian Muslims unfortunately have been dragged into an another unnecessary controversy. While we cannot say the decision given by the court is incorrect it urges the Muslim Community for a immediate introspection to figure out where exactly the community lost its fight for Justice in prodigious number of cases in India.

 

It is a hard truth that in India the socio-economic condition of Muslims is worse, compare to other back ward classes.  The reasons for such type of deplorable condition are many. Some of them are related to historical back ground and some are self committed sins. I dont want to discuss all those reasons which have left Muslims back ward in India. Off course no purpose will be served from wasting the time on such discussion at this point of time as nobody is going to compensate for historical prejudices the community suffered.

 

So we will discuss about the present chaos which hamper the progress and prosperity of the Community by trying to cripple it for permanent in India. It is high time for Muslims to decide what is right and wrong for them and who is their friends and enemies.

 

If Muslims have a notion that politicians are their friends whoever it may be , say Congress, CPM,SP,BSP so on so on, indeed they are great fools. Because politicians are only the elements who keep on hoodwinking   the Muslims over the decades.   If Muslims had not been dragged into political dramas then the community would not have been in today's pathetic condition in any ways.

 

To put it simple reservation quota has nothing to do with Muslim's socio-economical development. ThoughAP High Court has quashed it in AP state , still West Bengal Chief Minister says he will introduce10% quota for Muslims. What a contradiction...! If we are in the notion that Buddadevji does it from his heart we will be fooled. In the recent future WB is heading for polls and 30% voters are from Muslim Community who have recently turned away from CPM to Trinmool Congress after supporting Communists for over 30 years.

 

In Andhra Pradesh's Case Muslims is the main vote bank of congress .So, to appease them Cong play a unethical game or political tricks which definitely harm the interest and self esteem of Muslims. To articulate it firmly Muslims never should be a beggar community in the country which always looking out for govt's help each and every thing. To achieve self reliance Muslims have to develop a sense of self esteem which will help to outsmart the bloody political games of self centric politicians.

 

And, finally the time has come when we Indian should rethink about our approaches and policies on religions. The criteria for reservation and quota should always be the economic condition of the person and not the religion or caste. It is high time to realize ourselves that we should clean the politics by keeping the caste and religion at bay or at our homes but not in public life.
