Census!!! the word means an official count or survey of population.
On 3rd Apr, 2010,The country, on Thursday, took up one of its biggest intiatives, of counting its 1.2 billion population engaging over 25 lakh officials. The President, Ms. Pratibha Patil, inaugurated the census count, her name being recorded first.
The civic body has started door-to-door process of data collection for census. It includes details that will be used to build a comprehensive database for the National Population Register (NPR). It will cost Rs 2,209 crore and operation will be conducted over a period of 45 days in each state and Union Territory.
The enumerator can knock your door on any day.
It is imperative to note census is related to reservation, How? A big question. Apart from other details enumaertor will ask you your caste too. It is to ascertain that which caste is in what percentage of the population, so that reservation can be devised for backward and schedule castes to uplift their social and economic condition. Here note to be made that in India reservation is caste based not the financial condition.Although many people are economically backward in every caste whether it is General, OBC or SC category.
Reservation in education system and public sector jobs are hammering the economic growth of the country leaving the talent untapped.And it will endure protracted untill this reservation will not be eradicated. I am using word eradicated because caste based reservation is just like a epidemic.
You all must have faced the consequences/benefits of reservation at the time of getting admission in a good college or at the time of searching a Govt. job.
Through close observation i can say that if Govt. wants to provide reservation to the weaker section of the society, it should facilitate them financially like free education till 12 th class and also to talented students for higher education, which is now transpired through Right To Education Act .
There should be no reservation for getting admission in college/jobs. Talent shall get the job and our economy will grow exponentially.
If reservation has to be provided it has to be for the weaker section of the society based on their economic conditions.
Poltical parties came into power and go but nothing has been done to remove the reservation as they fear lose the votes. Even in Orrisa, there was a time when there is no caste based politics, now it has given the fire by few parties to burn their own oven. Caste is dividing india and political parties are the only beneficieriesYoung india must awake and understand the way political parties are fooling us.
The census 2011 is nothing more than this that India will be again devided on the basis of caste but the data gathered will be useful to UID project in great, headed by Nandan Nilekani , with some other projects run for the poorer section.
