Save your breath if you're going to give gyan on "merit" and other stuff - I've heard every argument under the sun in favour of and in opposition to affirmative action; I don't believe it's justified -- you are welcome to believe otherwise.
The problem with caste quotas is unfair implementation ie, creamy layer hogging the benefits. In that sense, it reeks of the same problem as NRI quotas.
