Fight for reservation in Rajasthan

Fight for reservation is an ongoing hot topic in Rajsthan's politics these days. Being a rajasthani, I cannot help myself to pen down a couple of thoughts I have on this topic. When the constitution of India was being drafted, certain historicaly opressed and under-represented groups were identified by the constitution makers. The whole idea of the reservation was to give these people a chance to climb the ladders with somewhat help and be on a comman platform as others. With time, this idea had taken toll in the power corridors of India to play the usual politics.
In current scenario it is completely transformed into something which only comes out of the box just before elections to pursuade people. What could be the worse than common people themselves cannot understand the dirty politics of our leaders which show the mirage everytime elections are on their way ?
