AArakshan controversy
The film has not been released and it has been cleared by the censor board established by law The politicians have prejudged the issue acting. abrogating to themselves as super sensor In India the politicians have no respect for established Institution Where is the scope for the arbitrary decision for the politicians to override the expert opinion of the sensor board there is no talk about division of opinion among the members of the censor board With their experience and expertise they have passed the film without even suggesting cuts Praksh Ja has in the past successfully explored new issues sensibly and without any uprising and raising of passions.The issue of reservation initially was for a period of 10 years. It is now over six decades but the reservations issue is becoming curious day by day There is no doubt that certain class of Indians need special measures for upward vertical movement on the social ladder But extending this idea to ridiculous limits for vote gathering has its repercussions too. Merritt cannot be totally sacrificed at the altar of expediency, without alienating the intelligent group of students left out high dry for want of place to pursue their avowed vocational and professional preferences Even in the higher levels of Education reservation and not merit is playing havoc with mediocracy What happens by putting square pegs in round holes? does it not lead to frustration of talent ? Indians are leaving the shores to find place in higher studies elsewhere The issue of reservation and increasing the quota for various castes and section is enlarged without taking into consideration the right of those entitled on merit The Govt , while increasing the seats of reservation ,must separately create intake capacity to accommodate them The progress and development cannot be achieved by mere reservation alone Nobody objects that these section of population, disadvantaged financially ,be given financial assistance, hostel facilities and special coaching to come to the desired level of competition Nowhere in the world mere caste ,tribes are favoured for preferential admission without qualifying standards The film yet to be released is an bold attempt to highlight the pent up feelings of frustrations of vast majority left out in the cold of general category of the students The politics of vote bank is dividing the population into two distinct camps and thus compelled to harbour burning anger of being impotent. The issue can raise a healthy debate of reasonable reservation and give new directions to take reality into consideration .For all that we know this raging controversy about the film can only fuel curiosity Many films made on terror,sex education ,riots, partition and other sensitive issue have been fruitful depiction and the censor board has singularly taken responsibility with care. Hence the politicians have no need to undermine the institution constituted for the specific purpose Let the people first view the film and then hear the opinions. Anticipating without basis is assuming too much. Nelson lopes Chinchinim 9850926276
