Write a debate in 150-200 words on “The policy of reservation of seats for admission to the professional courses is good for the deprived section of society.”

“The policy of reservation of seats for admission to the professional courses is good for the deprived section of society.”

Esteemed judges, I stand here to speak against the motion that the policy of reservation in professional colleges is good for the deprived section of society. Reservation should be purely on a merit basis. Imagine a person getting a seat for MBBS purely on reservation quota even with very low marks. What will happen when he becomes a doctor with his limited knowledge? This is the game played by politicians over the years and it has been passed over our generations. We should not forget that we are in the 21st century. On the one hand, we want economic reforms and on the other hand, we want to stick to the age-old parochial mentality of reservation policy. There was a time when so-called casteism was prevalent in India but things have changed and most of them have become an upper class the so-called brahmins have become economically poor and they do not get any seat even though they come on the merit list because of the reservation policy. It is high time India came out of this parochial view. I have seen many deserving candidates have lost opportunities in good education institutes because of the quota system. Politicians who advocate casteism in this era should be eliminated from politics.

With these arguments, I rest my case.

Thank you
