I am not blaming it just for sake of it. I am saying that Reservation in India is not the same as Affirmative Action in USA. There is no Quota System in USA. Current Reservation in India is actually reverse discrimination. Even B R Ambedkar wanted Reservation to only last for 10 years and not more because of its obvious discriminatory nature. It is totally against Article 14 of Indian Constitution that guarantees Equality. Instead of Reservation we need something like Affirmative Action that USA has. I am not saying discrimination was not done by upper castes. It was done. The solution to that cannot be reverse discrimination. That is revenge. It is not justice. Instead provide equal opportunity for all and lift those who were suppressed due to discrimination with scholarships, funding, free/affordable housing, free education and healthcare. We need upliftment not another form of discrimination all over again.
> All the Supreme Court Chief Justices have been Brahmins
That's patently false. We have had Sarv Mittra Sikri (an SC) as Supreme Court Chief Justice. Chief Justice S Rajendra Babu was OBC. Chief Justice R. M. Lodha who was OBC. All 3 are non-Brahmin Bahujan Chief Justices.
Apart from that we even have had Judges from minority Religion occupy Chief Justice position too.
Full list of non-Brahmin Chief Justices of India (18 out of 44 or roughly 40% of Chief Justices of India were non-Brahmin):
1. Hon’ble Mr. Justice Harilal Jekisundas Kania
2. Hon’ble Mr. Justice M. Hidayatullah
3. Hon’ble Mr. Justice J.C. Shah
4. Hon’ble Mr. Justice S.M. Sikri

> There are barely 4 Bahujan ministers in the cabinet
We have had plenty of Bahujan ministers holding major portfolios since 1947. Our President is Dalit and our Prime Minister is OBC. Two of the most important positions in our Republic. What more do you need?
