Indian Government have to think about poor students from forward castes. What Government is providing to them in education? For the last 40 years Government has been providing several incentives to the SCs and STs. What Government achieved?

According our constitution Government has to take steps. I strongly belive it is violating human rights seeing all citizens of India unequally.
