Now get a load of this:
Two years after a city college allowed girl students inside its portals, insecurity seems to have set in male ranks. Outdone in all fields academic, they are now demanding admission under reservation. Imagine. This happening in a male-crazed land where sex ratio is anything but in favour of the female child!There are only two remaining bastions to be conquered. The first of course is private jobs and the second - regional quota. The regional quota is currently implemented in indirect ways, for instance this.
On Saturday, a group of boys from SCD Government College for Boys, Ludhiana, demanded that the entry of girls in the institute be restricted. They submitted copies of their "application" to the chief minister, education minister, deputy commissioner, principal and Punjab State Human Rights Commission. They have demanded that the college authorities come out with two different merit lists in courses where girls are allowed and that seats be reserved in 70:30 (male, female) ratio. [link]
As various groups begin to understand better where they stand, they will demand continual adjustments. Since the Government steadfastly refuse to create a poll-neutral formula and the apex court has ruled out meddling in the affairs of the executive branch, these corrections will take increasingly violent forms. The Gujjar agitation was merely one of many to come.
An example of just how messy the quota arithmetic has become can be evidenced from this:
CHENNAI: In an ironical development, a community that was provided reservation in educational institutions and jobs said it does not want the provision. Christians in Tamil Nadu said the 3.5% exclusive reservation made for them in education and employment should be abrogated, contending that they had realised that quota hurt their interests instead of benefiting them. [...] Bishop of Kottar Rev Peter Remigius, state minorities commission chairman Fr Vincent Chinnadurai, all MLAs and one MP from Kanyakumari district, were part of the delegation. "This reservation is not beneficial to the Christian community, as we were doing better when we were competing with other backward classes for 30% OBC reservation. As an educated community, we were doing well, but the quota now restricts our job opportunities and admissions," Fr Chinnadurai told TOI. [...] Citing an example, he said in the ongoing MBBS admission process, out of 2,699 seats, Christians could only get 94 seats (3.5%), whereas they could have got more than 300 seats if the entire 30% OBC quota was open to them.

I came across this over the internet. Thought it was really hilarious!
New Exam Pattern in India (REVISED)
1. GENERAL STUDENTS : Answer ALL questions.
2. OBC : Write ANY ONE question.
3. SC : Only READ questions.
4. ST : THANKS FOR COMING.
5. GUJJARS : THANKS FOR ALLOWING OTHERS TO ATTEND THE EXAMINATION.....!!!
// This reservation is not beneficial to the Christian community, as we were doing better when we were competing with other backward classes for 30% OBC reservation. As an educated community, we were doing well, but the quota now restricts our job opportunities and admissions, //
if they are an educated community doing well, why the f*ck are they in the BC list in the first place? that is of course a question you will not see anybody raise. including our (learned?) judges.
This is an interesting game though. The scheduled caste christians in TN most likely declare their religion 'Hindu' in application forms because constitution does not allow for SC christians. The OBC caste christians (nadar, vanniar etc) did not have that problem so far. Now they too will have to lie and declare their religion 'Hindu' in application forms.
The Hindus in TN, as usual, will continue being immersed in the dravida cesspool of naicker and DK, when the xtian groups continue to pi*s on them.
Another note you missed - this 'protest' by xtians in kanyakumari was led by jayalalitha's party.
