Bharatvarsh garu,
Congrats on becoming a Senior Member! When did that happen?
I suggest that you become utterly indifferent to the composition of the beneficiary castes, except for one issue: we should wish that <i>as many Hindu castes as possible should get reservation</i>. Reason: Reservation for Muslims and Christians is going to happen in the next decade.
So, it would actually be a good thing if Kammas, Reddys and other Hindu castes all fall under the reserved category. Who is harmed by this: assuming that the quota percentage number does not change, adding a few more castes to it does not hurt the newly assigned castes - it also does not affect those who do not have any reservation. Those who are affected are those who are the current beneficiary castes - but reservation is an unfair policy anyway, so those who end up having their privileges affected should not deserve much sympathy.
