The four-member Group of Ministers, which went into the quota issue in the wake of the agitation by medical students, will submit its report to Prime Minister Manmohan Singh on Saturday.Scenario 1 is the current situation. The GoM has two choices really.
Option 2: OBCs and GC students are adequately appeased. OBCs get 27% seats based on current capacity, which comes from an added capacity of 27%. Note that this scenario violates the current accepted percentages promised - OBCs get only 21% of the total seats and SC/STs get about 18% for free.
Option 3: Capacity is increased by about 53%. SC/ST and OBC groups get their 22.5% and 27% free seats as promised by the "constitution". GC students keep their absolute number of hard earned seats.
Our house punter is on leave, so we won't make a bet.
