- Student-1: ....It was said that there is no fee for female students appearing for the GATE [exam] . It is ₹ 600-700 for [male] SC students. For the rest, ₹ 1500. I say that such differences need not be there. Let [the fee] be equal for all. All are well off.
Sivasankar:...Whom do you say "are well off" ?
Student-1: ... I do not mean everyone. I say this of those who are well off.
Sivasankar: ...[citing the example of a running race quoted by another participant]... If [we] place a person 100 metres behind and place you 100 metres ahead...that person's chance [to win] is diminished... In other words, how many of those running by your side have your stamina?...Those without eyesight...and those with impairment in their legs are also required to run along...Such weaker sections are there....You are speaking with Chennai in context. How many villages have you visited? Do you know the situation in villages. Even today, there's a compulsion in villages to work on the basis of one's caste. Do you know that? Do you know that they are refused the opportunities before them?...Social justice is something with a long history. There's no need for you to know it in full. All communities must be respected equally. But without a chance for that, they are down. Those at the bottom should be given a hand and raised up..[That action] is reservation. Another student claims that he himself belongs to the oppressed community but says it is embarrassing to get [concessions]. How can you feel embarrassed? Do you know what profession your father, grandfather and ancestors undertook? Do you know how oppressed they were?...For the sole reason that you've got an opportunity for education, that you've entered a college, that your friends think ill, you say no [to reservation] This is your personal view. But how many of those who were refused this opportunity undertake coolie work in the village? How many go to Kerala for work? None of you have thought of their plight. You only think that today "I'm well off.."
[The student whom he mentioned speaks]: Sir! [Reservation] is like something to be taken advantage of. None of those [coming through] reservation study...There's a course called Teacher Training. To study that, we're required to just pass Class 12 ....One just studies a day before exams, write the exam and receives pass marks...It's going just like that...
Sivasankar: Thambi! Do you know data regarding the number of SC students receiving high marks and getting placed in open quota for the last 5-10 years? [Student 2 nods in the negative] You don't know! You generally speak based on hearsay from your friend. What profession your grandfather undertook?
Student-2: Coolie.
Sivasankar: From that place ... [you've] crossed this many generations due to this reservation. [Hence] your family is able to educate you. You must understand that. We cannot change our life according to the talk of some four friends. More oppressed generation like you should come up. Speak after realizing this. (en)
