आरक्षणाशी निगडीत काही संदर्भ २.०

आधीचा धागा भारतातील आरक्षणावर खासगीत आणि आंतरजालावर बरीच चर्चा केली जाते , परंतु बर्याचदा चुकीच्या माहितीच्या आधारावर ह्या चर्चा चालतात म्हणूनच आरक्षणाविरोधातील काही चुकीच्या युक्तिवादांना उत्तर देण्यासाठी केलेला हा प्रयत्न. १) आजकाल कुणीही जातपात पाळत नाही. परंतु खालील सर्व्हे बघता अजूनही भारतात जातीव्यवस्था अस्तित्वात असल्याचे आढळते . शहरांमध्ये सुदधा . "Going by respondents’ admissions, untouchability is the most widespread among Brahmins, followed by OBCs. Among religious communities, it is the most widespread among Hindus, Sikhs and Jains, shows the survey, which was conducted in over 42,000 households across India by the National Council of Applied Economic Research (NCAER) and the University of Maryland, US." Biggest caste survey: One in four Indians admit to practising untouchability २) लग्नामध्ये आजकाल कुणी जात बघत नाही , शहरांमध्ये तर मुळीच नाही . परंतु केवळ ५ टक्के लग्न ही आंतरजातीय होत असल्याचे आढळून आले आहे. त्यामुळे सुशिक्षित असल्याचा कितीही आव आणला तरीही लग्नाच्या वेळी जात बघणे अजुनही थांबलेले नाही . Just 5% of Indian marriages are inter-caste: survey Inter-caste Marriages in India: Has it really changed over time? ३) सर्व सरकारी नोकर्या "ह्यांनी " खाऊन टाकल्या आहेत. परंतु खालील माहिती बघता , SC /ST प्रमाण अत्यंत कमी असल्याचे दिसून येते . विशेषतः वरच्या पोस्ट्स मध्ये तर हे प्रमाण अगदीच कमी दिसून येते. खालील डेटा जर बघितला तर शिक्षणामध्येही हा वर्ग मागेच असल्याचे दिसून येते. ४) पण.... पण ... प्रायव्हेट सेक्टर मध्ये फक्त मेरीट पाहिजे तिथे जात - बीत कुणी पाळत नाही ... फक्त गुणवत्ता पाहिजे . परंतु खालील सर्वे नुसार खाजगी क्षेत्रही काही वेगळे नसल्याचे दिसून येते. " This field experiment study of job applications observed a statistically significant pattern by which, on average, college-educated lower-caste and Muslim job applicants fare less well than equivalently-qualified applicants with high caste Hindu names, when applying by mail for employment in the modern private-enterprise sector. The only aspect of family background that was communicated in these applications was the applicant’s name, yet this was enough to generate a different pattern of responses to applications from Muslims and Dalits, compared to high caste Hindu names. These were all highly educated and appropriately qualified applicants attempting to enter the private sector, yet even in this sector, caste and religion proved influential in determining one’s job chances." "The study findings suggest that social exclusion is not just a residue of the past clinging to the margins of the Indian economy, nor is it limited to people of little education. On the contrary, it appears that caste favouritism and the social exclusion of Dalits and Muslims have infused private enterprises even in the most dynamic modern sector of the Indian economy" Urban labour market discrimination ५) पण आमच्या पूर्वजांच्या चुकांची शिक्षा आम्हाला का? वरील युक्तिवाद ऐकला की मला खालील कॉमिक ची आठवण येते . तुमच्या पूर्वजांनी चुका केल्या हे मान्य परंतु तुमच्या पूर्वजांकडून तुम्ही जी संपत्ती , जमीन , ज्ञान आणि सर्वात महत्वाचे म्हणजे जो "Privilege " inherit केला त्यांचं काय ? तो तुम्ही सोडायला तयार आहे का ? "It isn't about me being privileged compared to others from my caste in villages, it is about me having to struggle the most among the people who had a similar upbringing. Even though I went to an good school and lived in a good neighbourhood, we were the only tenants, my parents were the least educated among them and we were the only ones who didn't have any property to speak of. Everyone else in that neighbourhood, didn't have to worry about these. They had enough connections to get to the places they wanted to, had enough property which allowed them to take admission to the best colleges around the world and explore the best academic avenues. This is what privilege is. " And further claiming that reservation is inequality is like breaking the legs of a man and then challenging him to run a race by saying that- "Ok well, I know that you have been treated unfairly in the past but from today lets end all the discrimination. I won't beat you anymore. Let's run a race together, fairly" काही दुवे: Talking Discrimination and School Dropout Rates in India Why Reservations? | Yogendra Yadav | TEDxAIIMS Hidden Apartheid Caste Discrimination against India’s “Untouchables”
