Brainless in Maharashtra

In the wake of state elections, the Maharashtra Government played dirty politics to be one-up on the Sena. To ensure vote banks, they were ready to play with lives of students, introducing the 90:10 principle.

“How brainless can you get? You are ready to forego a set of students as they are from ICSE or CBSE or any private board? You are ready to leave that talent that could have helped your state and the citizens of the state?” They are forgetting that you are playing with the future for very short term gains!

They tried to make it a law, and certainly, there is taxpayer’s money involved in the futile time spent. Why should we bear this cost? I think the party/organization that wanted to woo vote banks should pay for this. They should also pay for the time spent by the courts to negate their decision. Also, to the multiple families who have lost sleep over their child’s education. On top of all this they should pay at least INR 50 crs to the govt. for fooling around and misusing their power so that no party can ever think of taking cheep and dirty steps to get voters into their fold!

Brainless in Maharashtra, that’s what these politicians are.

I like the courts as they do have their brains in place.

Brainless is right. I heard that the chairman of the Maharashtra Education Commitee is practically illiterate and used to be a big goonda in Thane.

There should also be a way to levy a fine on such extreme popoulist agendas. One student was commenting that last year the govt had flosted the percentile system, this time it is the 90:10. Next year, they will come out with another scheme. There should be some way to make the government or parties accountable.
