    As I understand you, you’re in favor of abolishing quotas for SC/ST persons, for example. In view of the large and rising income inequality and wealth inequality across the Indian population (stats), would you be open to an ambitious ‘caste-blind’ social security system, financed by taxing the rich? Or to income-based educational support programs?

      What’s caste blind social security system?

      There should income based affirmative actions, for the ones who comes in BPL (below poverty line) list and for the specially abled people

      If more than half a century of affirmative actions wasn’t able to give jobs to certain communities, then it’s a skill issue not a society issue

      Casteism doesn’t exists except in some villages, left extremists would say otherwise
