I remember someone saying, “A leader is the one who emerges out of the crowd and achieves set objectives”. There are hundreds of theories available about leadership traits, but the one which has strike my mind is the above line.
I feel we don’t need reservation to find leader amongst us. As the word says reservation means book something for future use, may be a service or a space, but not a leader. I do understand we are in a democratic country where we have a right to choose our leader but the idea of reserving a leader can not be digested.
Reservations are the means to provide benefits to the certain segment of society, which is economically backward. And the same can not be used to empower the backward class. You really have a concern about women or any backward class; provide them better education, better facilities and spread the awareness about human rights(if you think the crimes against women are a concern). Address the real problem at the base level, rather than a short cut solution to the problem.
We have seen the problem with reservation in local panchayat bodies, and the same thing will replicate in the parliament level. As the womens quota bill is a sensitive issue, no one dares to oppose it publicly. Let’s not be so cynical about vote bank politics, express it publicly.
I am not against women or any back ward class, i m just against the concept of reservation of a leader.
Let’s unite, raise voice...
