The standard 12th exam results Tamil Nadu have been announced. Now what? Now the students need to try to find a seat on a college in a desired place, in a desired college, which provides a desired course. Now, a person with good marks is eligible to get admitted in a good college, in 'dote'. When the government announces the 'cut off' mark required by the student to get a seat in colleges, people come to know if they can get into the college by 'merit', on the basis of marks.
Now, let's say a set of 10 friends have attained good cut off marks, out of which three friends belong to the caste "FC", and the rest belong to SC, ST, MBC, BC etc. Now two of these FC friends have scored more than all the others. But are the seven friends who are not FC having a better chance to get a seat in a college, though their marks are lesser, just because they belong to these castes?
I don't think this is fair. People belonging to the Forward Community (FC) have scored more, which probably means they have more talent and ability. Okay, let's leave alone the third FC who has scored lesser marks ...he might not have that much capability. But, though getting less marks, are these SC, ST, MBC, and BC students going to get into the colleges in an easier way?
Every student needs to get the opportunities he/she is eligible to avail. But they are deprived of these privileges just because they come from Forward Community?
How efficient is our future going to be, if we have people with less knowledge in job? I do agree that Non-FCs also have talent. But does that mean they only have talent and knowledge? Everybody with knowledge and talent should be given a chance to prove themselves? Don't you think so?
