Dear Rahul Gandhi
You have been quoted today as saying that you don’t believe in caste. Bravo. That is a position I applaud.
May I then assume that you don’t believe in reservations also? After all, by discriminating on the basis of caste, reservations perpetuate the same kind of divisive thinking that the caste system did. They don’t solve the problem—they make it worse.
Regards
Amit Varma
