Recently I was reading some blog called OBC voice which mentioned that while Kammas don't get reservation in AP (which we shouldn't) they are still included under the OBC banner in TN and Karnataka, can anyone tell me why this is, are these Kammas really backward?
A lot of these so called OBC castes shouldn't even be in there, Kammas along with Reddy's dominate AP so I can't believe that we have suddenly become backward in the 2 other states, in case of TN I think it was part of the overall effort at freeloading that made the gov't include my jati among OBC's, otherwise how the hell is it that 70-80% of TN's population is listed as this or that backward group.
If we are stuck with jati based reservation then as jatis get richer they need to scrapped off the list so that more deserving groups in need of the benefits get the actual benefits, I see no need for reservations at all for communities like the Yadav's or Kammas or Jats (although Jats are not included as OBC, the Jat Mahasabha did make an effort to get them included in there).
