No I'ld not want you to flunk. No maam' no way. Me thinks, quota system has it's advantages when we are talking about some minority group who does not have a voice or intellectual, political, material means to influence/present their sufferings, opinions or for that matter are not in 'loop' show what or whether they are capable of doing something that others so conveniently overlook. Also, let us not forget many social and political calmness/balance it brings. I concur with aforementioned opinion by poonte dai.Ideally it is perfect if ONLY qualification for the job is the prime and only criteria. Having said that, let us not forget that we live in the world where there are other aspects which are very critical to keep the balance and maintain harmony between people with different social, religious and geological backgroud. Feeling of belonging is vital for peaceful and sound functioning of the sociaty as a whole. If the minority feels ignored and helpless, unpleasent circumstances might come to the fore. Thus, although quota system should not be blindly justified, it should neverthless stay put for now, until another reasonable solution arises in the horizon. ( By arises, I meant we should work on to it. Feri afai aucha bhaneko hoina :p) Some take advantage of it and some actually gets a stage to present/show their worth which they otherwise would not ever get to show. And to end this all, I also strongly voice for few hundred thousands quota system for Nepalese diasporas. Natraaaaaaa.....hehehehe.:p Hope it helps. Ani ruina ke bhandaicha. Timile ke lekheu rythm?:p Chat ma re. Kyaa ho kyaa. Gup chup gupchup cha ajkal sabai;) IndisGuise:)
