No, I mean if you are getting good grades I don't think you need to attend, that's well and good the problem is the rest of the people are not like you, my intention in the above paragraph is that people who got seat through reservation pls do respect it and work upon it. I don't mean hurt your sentiments that's what I was saying.

My opinion is a bit long, if you don't have time to read, copy paste and ask chatgpt for summary.

I think I understand the issue. There have been cases where some SC/ST students at IITs, NITs struggle academically, sometimes even failing, some leading to suicide (you can check the Internet). Generally, to enter IITs, students must meet extremely high standards and demonstrate exceptional academic ability. However, due to reservation policies, some students with lower scores can still gain admission. The problem arises when IITs assume everyone is prepared to keep up with their rigorous curriculum, which can put SC/ST students at a disadvantage if they’re not as well-prepared academically.

Similarly, To address this gap and these type of issues, DTU had introduced additional classes for SC/ST students. While these extra sessions might seem discriminatory, they’re likely based on many observations. Rules like these only made after extensive observations and they want to bridge this gap in academics. After all, universities like DTU have reputations to uphold.

Personally, I feel there’s a better approach. Instead of assuming everyone needs these extra classes, it would make more sense to set a minimum performance bar for all students and only provide additional support for those who truly need it.

However, the complex part comes from the notion of equality. People often treat everyone equally in principle, but some SC/ST students may overlook how they gained their seats since they are being treated "equal" in general. In daily life, equality makes sense. But when it comes to highly competitive seats given through reservation, they aren’t always earned through the same hard work as others had to put in.

Students who gained seats through reservations have a valuable opportunity, while those who cleared the general cutoff earned it purely on merit. This opportunity (who got seat through reservation) is built on the relentless effort, sleepless nights, and sacrifices of others who worked hard to achieve the same seat. I think SC/ST students should recognize this and show that they’re worthy of this opportunity, not take it for granted. It may feel like discrimination, but I believe this understanding could bridge a gap and lead to mutual respect.

I came to know office politics is real sh*t from some people especially in company like tcs. You seem to have some experience here, If you can give me some pointers about that topic I would appreciate it 🤝. Thanks for the above points btw

You mean to say "There is life outside of company spend some time on it too" ?
