The students who were in favour of reservation were on the opinion that the reservation shouldn’t be caste based but should be in economic based criteria. They were of the view that the creamy layer are economically and educationally advanced so why to provide them the benefits. How can India provide a message of oneness by giving reservation.
Then there were other students who were against the topic and supported the reservation policy by claiming that it uplifts the weaker section. It is a means to end inequalities in society and reservation is the remedy to it. The students were of the view that this reservation is more like an economic criteria because the sections being benefitted by the reservation are actually poor and need to be uplifted .
