Even as a beneficiary of the reservation system, I do wonder whether it is the answer. I personally feel the caste identity is tied deeply with religion and both tend to get utilized by the powers that be, in a similar manner. Ultimately, it falls onto us to uplift ourselves, as frankly, I don't see why anyone, would willingly give up something that benefits them, especially when it is considered a part of their birthright.
