Rahul Mehta Gandhinagar LsCandidate

One reason why anti reservation movement have happened less in past 20 years is - increase in number of self financed seats in Engineering, medicine
.
In year 1986 , about 4 crore people crossed age of 17 years. No of MBBS seats = 24000. About 1 in say 1600. Number of self financed = almost none. All were merit based
.
In year 2026 , about 2.2 crore people crossed age of 17 years. No of MBBS seats = 167000. About 1 in say 160 !!
.
And more than 50% are self financed
.
Same way , engineering seats increased by several times.
.
And as UP Bihar add more self financed medical engineering college , numbers will increase.
.
So upper class and middle class gets mbbs engineering admission by merit or money. So they dont spend time in anti reservation
.
And lower class sees a fact that bigger loss came because of self financed and less because of st sc obc reservation. So they also lose moral base to oppose caste based reservation.
.
Quality and future employability may become issue.
