@mister_thapar This means that there are better candidates in ur COHORT, in ur language 'meritorious' than YOU, have taken those seats. Again the affirmative action in PG is to negate the existing casteist bias, so the discrimination. Ex is how you still carry 'Thapar' to SMH 🤦‍♂️
You should actually ask the Govt to provide more seats than pointing finger at the affirmative action. Just FYI a state in your same 'meritorious' brahmin India had able to create one Medical college in each district, why that's not happened all over the India?
@Mister_Thapar And the affirmative action is basically a reparation for those stolen opportunities too. Even till 1930's the brahmins have able keep the sanskrit as requirement for medicine education, just imagine large masses were never allowed to learn. https://twitter.com/thaiyaan/status/1038129913490894848
@Mister_Thapar Just imagine if they kept sanskrit as requirement for learning wester medicine in TN, where progressive movement started first, think about other states. So the affirmative action is for recovering those stolen education from large masses. https://twitter.com/thaiyaan/status/1038131927998390272
@Mister_Thapar Why that same blood never boiled for those brahmin savarnas, who are NRI's, taking those seats with their social capital and money? And please do check the rank for NRI's.
Just curious did ur blood boiled for those Dr's murdered by the caste discrimination in PG?
@Mister_Thapar here is one https://twitter.com/sankisurgeon/status/1139624582464192512
