Too Many Graduates

[Sriram]

Dalits and other lower castes have been given free education and reserved quotas for Govt. jobs for decades. Even seats in premier institutes such as IIT ans IIM are reserved for dalits and other lower castes.

But I don't think you really want to know! 

But Sri, being given free education and having reserved quotas doesn't mean that 'Dalits and other lower castes' are actually treated equally.  The very fact that they have to have 'reserved quotas' should be a clue to that.  Having lived and worked in the subcontinent for 10 years, I am also aware that such people find it very difficult to get accommodation near the locations of many of the 'reserved' Govt. jobs.

Well then..... what does it prove?!  And why are we discussing India again on a thread that is on a very different subject?!

And why are we discussing India again on a thread that is on a very different subject?!

You'll need to ask Udayana why he introduced India.  I suspect that it may something to do with the fact that many Asian nations are finding that they are suffering from a surfeit of graduates and not enough graduate-level jobs - rather like the West.

Just seemed relevant to a thread about people with degrees in unsuitable, in this case menial, jobs. Are we not allowed to discuss countries other than the UK for some reason?
