CASTE BASED RESERVATIONS IN PROMOTIONS

Trust the highly immoral, unscrupulous and utterly sinful Congress government at the centre to devise divisive, devious and dubious means of diverting the nation's attention from it's numerous episodes of omission and commission.
In a hasty, ill conceived and covert manner, the cabinet earlier today accorded or appended it's stamp of approval on a bill that could either prove to be either a political master stroke for the battered, bruised and beleaguered Congress party or then prove to be it's Waterloo with the underlying danger of this caste or community sensitive bill further dividing an already hopelessly divided society and country even further.
Yes, the cabinet for reasons best known to it has passed a bill that seeks to extend reservations in promotions to those government employees who belong to either the scheduled castes or scheduled tribes thereby striking a devastating blow to recent efforts being made towards ushering in an era of accountability and efficiency amongst the government babu's..
Political expediency seems to have taken centre stage once again after the customary lip service being made towards ushering in a transparent, efficient and time bound delivery system that was supposed to ensure time bound completion of all tasks entrusted to government servants.
Will some enlightened soul, kindly educate us illiterate souls on the present status of the twin principles of merit and seniority that were the Bible and Gita or then foundation stone of any promotion linked policy.
Is the unity and integrity of this country more important in the long run or then a bill which when passed by both houses of parliament will certainly earn the political parties a few brownie points from the scheduled castes and tribes in the short run, have the originators and supporters of this highly divisive bill even paid a moment's attention towards the long term ramifications of the same and as to how this bill is further going to sub-divide an already hopelessly divided nation even further on caste and creed lines?
For the sake of this country as well as it's future generations, arise, awake and oppose this piece of rubbish tooth and nail or then be prepared to start making even more numerous rounds of government offices as efficiency and accountability within government offices will soon be reduced to bywords found in the dictionaries inhabiting the book shelves of these very same offices..
