I don't agree to this. The discrimination were meted
out to the ancestors of SC/ST. But why the benefit is
given to the present generation. And if the
discrimination were carried out by the RC Brahmin for
those centuries, then why the hatrate towards the new
generation of RC Brahmin.

RESPONSE: I was thinking the same ;-)
Are you serious? Reservation for scheduled
caste/tribes is to undo (in a small way) for
discrimination they suffered for centuries. A Brahmin
who proclaims his caste as a sign of superiority is
indulging in discrimination, albeit with much less
effect today. As for the strange hybrid known as RC

Your knowledge of the indian scene is rather poor!
Read a good work on caste .
First, caste is, like it or not, a part of Hinduism.

I agree with Eugene and find Halur's point interesting. Does anyone
really believe that a mother from a SC/ST would actively look for an RC
Goan Brahmin for her daughter?? Don't you think she'd look around for
