Now Reservation in IIT Faculty Positions !

Got this TimesOfIndia Story from a friend. HRD has now ordered quota in IIT faculty. Infact the total quota required by HRD for SC, ST and OBC in teaching position goes above 50%.

Why is the government so keen on dividing the society in casts? Haven't politicians wracked enough havoc by using the religion and caste division? We should be working towards removing the caste divide and not promote people to distinguish themselves as SC/ST/OBC.
