Era holen Dhaki
      Bujhchho ki go ta ki?
Era , pujor moja tomay diye-
      Ghor ke dichhe Faki.

     Eder shishu ghore kande-
     Pitar kole chepe,
     Kan ti pete shunbe
     Pitar Hridoy kamon kanpe.

Pitar kole chore shishu
Dekhbe penja megh
Kasher matha kamon dolay
Pagla haoar beg.

Ei asha ki mitbe bolo
Dhaki pitar shishur?
Jar shishu hok
Kanur,Harur, Bishur!

My Bengali Poems In English Transliteration

2010-10-09T01:56:00.000+05:30

I am writing my Bengali poems here,in my blog in the fashion of English transliteration.Many of the computer operating systems including Windows xp,which is still being used widely,does not support Bengali fonts by default;hence,my poems,if they are written in Bengali fonts,remain unintelligible to the readers,who like to use those operating systems and many of my friends have already complained me of that.So,now I have no other options left but only this one.Bengali poems in in English font may look some times awkward or may appear relatively difficult to read out to some extent-I think I will be excused for that!Thank you.

Bondhu aachhe door deshe te

Amay fele aka-

Kar sathe aj khelbo holi

Fichkari aj faka!

Sob rong e aj berong lage

Bichheder ei chhayay!

Notun rongin bosonto aj

Bondhu tomay rangiye dilum

Amar moner ronge;

Somosto rong ujar kore

Amar nijer dhonge.

Somosto rong ujar kore

Rikto holo mon;

Bhalobasar dhon.

Rikto holo,tripto holo,

Abar uthlo bhore

Amar mon; se sweeo madhurite,

Tomay rongin kore!

[NOTE:At first,I thought to write a 4-liner poem regarding a thought about friendship ....but after writing up the whole of the piece of poetry,I divided each line of it into two parts at the end.So now it is now nore a 4-liner,rather it has become a 8-liner....not much a bad idea,nah! :) ]

The Memorable 13hr 15 Minutes At Our Auditorium

2010-10-03T17:48:00.000+05:30

I am going to narrate here one of my most memorable days. Actually it is,perhaps, not a single day but is stretched in two dates of calender.It is the incidence of 22nd and 23rd days of September of 2010. This is my final year MBBS.In our college(Burdwan Medical College) Social,the participants must be in their 1st or 2nd or 3rd or 4th or Final years.That means,students can participate only before they appear their Final MBBS examination.Intarnes and House Staffs can not participate in the stage,rather,they can participate in the programme only as judges or as spectators.So this is the last time in my MBBS college life that I could participate in our social on the stage!I participated in all previous years' college socials.I actually thought not to perform on stage this year.But,one of my friends from Boys' hostel 1 earnestly requested to participate.At the last moment,I decided to participate and played mouth organ.
   This is the first time that,our college social has been arranged in the new auditorium,the construction of which has just been completed this year,of our college.The construction of this auditorium took much long time.When we were in our first year of MBBS in our college,then we saw that the basic building procedure of this auditorium was almost complete and the "Treasure" of the "Treasure Hunt" game of our(06-07 batch) Fresher-Welcome ceremony was hidden there in that semi-built auditorium!But,the finishing work of the auditorium has taken another 4 years to be completed and is finished now,when we are on the verge of leaving this college as graduate students!In spite of these,we just got a beautiful auditorium and the opportunity to perform on its stage.
   In previous years,the College Social had been being arranged at our Lecture theater 1.We performed and enjoyed our Social there in hot,stuffy,crowded environment as there was not enough room to accommodate all the performers and spectators comfortably!
   In this year the arrangement of College Social in auditorium just has become an Inspiration,Enthusiasm and a valuable memory especially to me because of the reason mentiond above.
I joined this day's(22nd September,2010) program at nearly 7 pm.The Instrumental section of social was to start at about 11 pm(22th September,2010)-12 midnight! But the instrumental section was delayed because of Antaksharee,Duet songs.
The whole evening and night was passed in the auditorium with the exception of some tiny breaks,when I came out of the auditorium hall,for refreshments like taking coffee,snacks ......
When actually instrumental started,it was about 6 am(23 rd Sept,2010) and my term came at about 6:20 am!At that time,the darkness of night was gone and a new day time started to blossom with the soft beams of rising sun!I came out After my performance others like my batch mates and juniors performed and thus ,when all performances ended,it was 8am almost!Then came the time of announcement of batch-wise performance result.Then there was a session of taking group photos of batches.At last when we left the auditorium,it was 8:15 am!
This 13hr and 15 min became a valuable memory with the perfect blending of aesthetic joy and optimistic melancholy.This memory will live in my heart with other such memories for life to become a component of my nostalgia of bygone days in future and to become substrate for rumination of past in a lonely afternoon or a vibrant congregation !!

Beatiful auditorium!

My Momentary Thoughts

2010-09-03T23:55:00.001+05:30

Communication fills gaps ;again,communication complicates...!

"Jodi basar moto partum bhalobaste/tobe ki ar amon bhabe doore thakte parte!" -Bilwatosh Mukhopadhyay

Life is too short a game,enjoy it to the last moment!

Life is a small pitcher full of Honey,enjoy it to the last possible tiniest drop!

Life is not for just remaining in the smallest possible narrow cocoon,make it clear first!

To Love and be loved is just the synonym of Life !

It is indeed possible to do almost every thing(if not every thing)...so there is no way to give up the trial ...the only other duty is just to be prepared for paying the toll that may be demanded by the resulting situation!

Rationale for keeping away from Smoking

2010-08-14T03:30:00.001+05:30

There is much more than a single cause for keeping away from smoking.
It is best for those,who are not used to smoke, never to start smoking.
For those,who are used to smoke,there is a need to give a serious consideration to quit it.
*DISEASES-that are directly related to smoking or are result of smoking are as follows:-
1. Bronchogenic carcinoma
2. Emphysema
3. Barger's disease
4. Asthma
5. Diabetes
6. Hypertension
7. Ischaemic heart diseases and lots of their cardiac complications
8. Ophthalmopathy (early cataract etc)
9. Cerebral vascular accidents
10. Grave's disease(a thyroid over activity)
11. Atherosclerosis and many more!
It is true that smoking does not affect every individual smokers in uniform fashion-this is due to different susceptibility criteria in different individual;this susceptibility is essentially the genetic susceptibility or predisposition. Still every one should ideally avoid smoking,because,everyone is hardly getting any chance to know how much genetic susceptibility to harmful effects of smoking is present there in one individual.
*Elements-that are present in tobacco smoke and causative of the above mentioned diseases are chiefly:-
1.Nicotine
2.Benzopyrin and other polycyclic organic carcinogenic hydrocarbon compounds present in the tar,that is produced owing to burning of tobacco leaves.
*Roles Of The Elements-
Nicotine in tobacco smoke is responsible for the physiological effects,for which a smoker smokes tobacco. It is mainly responsible for causing non neoplastic diseases with roots in smoking.
Polycyclic hydrocarbon compounds are present in tobacco smoke only to bring on dreaded malignant neoplastic diseases(cancers).
Smoking-Disease Relationship:-
chance of acquiring diseases resulting from the tobacco smoking is directly proportional to amount(of tobacco leaf smoked) and duration(in years) of smoking.That is,the more the amount and/or the duration of smoking,the more the chance of acquiring smoking-induced diseases.
Once the smoking habit is given off for atleast 10 yrs,the chance of developing these diseases decreases considerably leaving little way to be anxious there after, if abstinence from smoking is maintained.
*Dependance-on tobacco smoking is simply and merely a psychological one. Hence it is not difficult to quit smoking oneself without taking help of other persons(doctors) or other materials and only using one's will-power!
A habitual smoker only develops the typical habit and some silly associations. To make this clear,let us consider some common examples:-
Many persons are used to brush their teeth after meals and before going to bed at night;if,due to any cause,they can not brush their teeth,they feel awkward,this is am example of a good habit.Now the habituation to smoking is also some thing like that,with its harmful effects,when one is reluctant to have puffs of tobacco smoke just after completion of meals-this is just a habituation,i.e.smoking because of liking to smoke(not due to obvious need to smoke).
Again,many people are used to cut nails by teeth in moments of deep or serious thoughts or problems-this is am example of association(it is also essentially a type of habit in fact)-cutting of nail by teeth has actually nothing to do with the seriousness of the thought or situation!Association of smoking is also something like that,when a smoker craves for tobacco smoke at the time of deep thought(as can classically be found in stories of Holmes and Felu da!),depression or tension (this behaviour may probably have some substance because of effects of nicotine on human nervous system in low dose and in the absense of habituation).After a person develops this type of association,he/she starts to use tobacco smoke indiscriminately in large amount as and when he/she faces such kind of situations without giving even a single thought to assess the gravity of the situation(This is as funny as an observation,where many people have seen atleast a couple of students,who are habituated and dependant on carrying mini-notes for cheating/copying in examination hall regardless of the level of their studies and labour!)
*How-to quit smoking? It is so simple. Nothing but a strong determinition is required to quit smoking!
# One mast determine not to inhale a single puff of tobacco smoke onwards in coming days and act accordingly continuously in future.
# one should be cautious to avoid any activity that may give rise to awkward situation.One may take help of dependable and near and dear persons in tackling awkward situations rather taking relp of wobbabo smoke.
*Responsibility-of other peoples of the family and society of a smoker can not be neglected in avoiding smoking.Not to offer smoking tobacco,helping tackle and behaving accordingly not giving rise to awkward situations etc are very simple but important does and donts among many of the important duties of the responsible persons of family and society.
Lastly it can be said,smoking's to be avoided.

Grief Of A Motherly woman

2010-07-15T11:57:00.002+05:30

Hi,
Today I am going to tell you one of my important and sad experiences with a very simple and small piece of true story. The story goes as :
One day during my usual ward visit in hospital,I saw an elderly woman with heart failure,which resulted form aortic regurgitation.She came from a family of low socioeconomic condition and she was illiterate.While I was examining and questioning her,she almost cried and said in reply to my question that she was suffering from breathlessness for almost last tow years on normal day to day activity and chest pain! She told this to her family members like her sons &husband,but,none of them showed slightest interest regarding her poor disabling condition.None of them agreed to take her to see a doctor! At last, eventually when she became moribund,then,only one of her sons &her elder sister brought her to admit her to hospital! Her only family attendant in hospital was her elder sister and no other persons came to see her in hospital!
I do not know to what extent I was able to represent the gravity of the condition in words;but it seemed one of the saddest incidents that I faced ever!
I felt deeply.I felt a deep rooted grief and a typical sense of insecurity while I was trying to put myself in her position! At once, the face of my mother came to glow,being superimposed on the woman's face in front of my eyes and ,as if, I was her wretched,fool son,who can not realise the greatest ever Sin,the mankind has ever witnessed,he has committed!...the woman was so much 'Motherly' in appearance,the replica of eternal 'Mother-hood',who devoted and spent her whole life solely to maintain her family,brought up her children and look after her family members and nothing else!BUT,what was her REWARD insted? It was nothing but IGNORANCE and IGNORANCE and IGNORANCE of her nearest,dearest and her very own persons!She loved,but,was she loved?
What had she wanted from life?Was it too much to long for a litte Love and sympathy,perhaps, apart from minimum food and clothings?BUT,it is the irony that she was deprived of the possible barest minimum need of Life-game!...
The story of the woman described the naked truth of poor condition,which is more than sufficient to bring tears in eyes and grow child-like cry in the deepest corner of one's heart,of women like her in our country and the world.She,her Cry,her Tears,her Grief is the lively representitive of 'Universal Deprived Mother-hood'! Can the gorgeous exhibition of a single ''MOTHERS' DAY'' and tall talks bring end to such shameful insult to Humanity and glorious mother-hood,until or unless all of the 'Children' can sufficiently feel the Pain!
I really cried in me after this incidence and I am eagerly waiting to know the response of the reader after reading this.

What Have I Seen ?

2010-07-09T00:36:00.007+05:30

It is,indeed very tough to say
where to go and where is the way?
Am I wrong or,am I right?-
Probably they bother very slight.
I wonder and wonder and I think,
what have I seen,the ocean or sink?
Have I seen the deepest grief,
The hidden cry of the gray-green leaf ?
Have I seen the turns of alley ,
The alleys of life and darkest valley?
Have I seen the fight to win,
To win the lost-game just in vain;
There is their the thirst for life ,
Taking the Death just as wife!
There are few who won the game,
won but never they showed own name,
Just they got the slightest taste
Of life,for which they'd gasped in nest!
They are those,who got them changed-
But, I never could see what changed!
Have I seen the pain of Night,
Who brings for me delight of light?
I have seen just nothing on earth,
Just I can't deny the time's dearth.
Life is too small to see any thing,
Too small to see grow the cute Duckling!

Joke

2010-06-27T01:03:00.000+05:30

Mr X: Did you know,Dndia could not take part in world cup football?
Mr Y: oh,of course!..how could they?
Mr X: u r right! in a match if Dndians' opponents give a goal,then Dndians ,being non-violent,will just call the opponent to stand and push another goal to their net!
Mr Y: that is only a silly cause, u know.The more serious is that,if a player of Dndia is hart by opponent player,another player will automatically come forward to be another victim-it is the way of non-violence and fraternity !

Creativity and lifestyle

2010-02-16T00:52:00.001+05:30

Creativity is the essential characteristic of any human being.This creativity draws the most clear demarcation between subhuman-animals and the human beings.Every individual human being essentially possess/show creativity in one way or the other.
   some people show very little amount of creativity,which is considered as negligible,because these are not clearly felt by others;where as others show considerable amount of creativity and imagination.These two groups of people have almost heaven and hell difference between them.
   The former group(gr1) is generally very less imaginative & they can face the reality as it appear to them without remaining plunged into there own world of imagination,which is at the root of creativity.
   In the case of the latter group(gr2) of people,they generally remain in there own world of imagination and thought process being less concerned to the real world.As a result they some times,while they remain engrossed most deeply in there thoughts,do deeds that are not familiar to the gr1 people or do not do things, that are generally done by the gr1 people!
   As a result these two groups are clearly distinguished from each other.Here the gr1 people regard the gr2 people as eccentric,mad,mentally disordered or perverted,but that is never the case-it is just the 'lay man' concept!
   In this context we can easily recall the story regarding the conversation between Sir Isaac Newton and the carpenter,where Newton told the carpenter to make a small hole for his little cat and a large hole for his big pet cat! From this story should Newton be called as a mentally disordered person?The answer is certainly not.
   Great thinker both in the fields of science and arts ,I think, are deeply engaged in there thoughts resulting in a trance like state,where they can feel the reality in its totality but there interaction with the exterior is poor and there interpretation of the reality is intuitively different,which actually leads them to there creation/invention.
   These gr2 people,owing to there different point of view,have a different lifestyle pattern which does not match with that of the gr1 people.

Evoking Photography

2010-02-15T18:12:00.001+05:30

Photography is a very good art itself and it demands certain degree of imagination for a good photograph.But here I want to present some of my evoking photographs,which evoke imagination and render/import impacts of some known & familiar objects,animals & human being. Actually the pictures rendered in these photographs are results of some spilled water or spilled wall-paints,clouds etc & none of them was created intentionally,rather,they are all the results of accidental happenings!-that is why I was impressed so much by them! The typical structures of these evoked my imagination & I believe that they can evoke imagination of the reader/viewer also,as well.Watch the following photographs:-

Wall-paints(wp):

সূর্যকুমার রাজা ছিলেন

রাজ্যে ছিলনা সুখ ;

রাজ্যে সবার নানান অসুখ

আর্তি মাখানো মুখ |

রাজা ডাকলেন "মন্ত্রী মশাই!"-

মন্ত্রী এলেন কাছে ;

রাজা শুধালেন সমস্যাটার

সমাধান কিবা আছে?

চন্দ্রবিজয় মন্ত্রী মশাই

বলেন প্রচুর ভেবে-

এ রাজ্যে তো বৈদ্য প্রচুর,

এবার অসুখ যাবে!

এক এক করে দিন পার হয়

পেরোয় হপ্তা মাস-

কয়েক বছর পার হ'য়ে যায়

রাজাই হত-আশ!

একদিন তাই রাজবৈদ্য

বলেন নিজেই যেচে

বৈদ্যরা তো দেখবে রোগী

ভাবেন কেন মিছে ?

করতে হবে অনেক কিছু

বলতে আমি পারি

আপনি আমায় অভয় দিলে

স্বাস্থ্য বিচার করি !

মন্ত্রী বলেন কড়া সুরে

রাজ বৈদ্যয় ডেকে-

রাজায় ছেড়ে প্রজার ভাবনা,

গাত্রে ধুলো মেখে?

রাজ বৈদ্য বিনয়াবতার

বলেন স্মিত হেসে ,

শুনুন মশাই বৈদ্য আমি-

সবাইকে ভালোবেসে!

রাজা বলেন বৈদ্য মশাই

অভয় দিলাম আমি;

আপনি বলুন ঔষধ কি

লাগবে দামী দামী?

এবার বলেন রাজবৈদ্য

ওষুধ অল্প কিছু,

তার সঙ্গে অন্য বিষয়

আসবে পিছু পিছু |

জনগণের শিক্ষা লাগবে,

লাগবে কর্ম সংস্থান,

লাগবে সঠিক শুদ্ধ খাদ্য

আছে বিশুদ্ধ জলের স্থান |

জানতে হবে কোথায় , কত

কোন রোগটা বা বেশী

দরকার কি?-চিকিত্সা, না,

প্রতিরোধটাই বেশী!

বলতে হবে মানুষ কে ওই

প্রতিরোধের কথা

নিরাময়ের পূর্বে অসুখ

দেয় যে বিষম ব্যথা !

শুধুই যদি কোনোও মানুষ

ভোগে অসুখ,রোগে -

কষ্ট পাবে,ওষুধ খাবে;

সে বিনিদ্র রাত জাগে |

নিশ্চয়তার শান্তিতে সে

পারবে না চোখ বুজে

গভীর ঘুমে রাত্রি কালে

শান্তি নিতে খুঁজে |

জানতে হবে কোন রোগ টা

ছড়ায় কেমন ভাবে,

কি ভাবেই বা রোগ গুলি হয়-

বিস্তার হয় কবে |

মন , সমাজ আর পরিবারের

প্রভাব কতখানি-

কোন রোগে তে জানতে হবে

বাহক বা কোন প্রাণী |

বুঝতে হবে পরিষেবা

কোথায় কেমন ভাবে

সাজিয়ে নিলে সঠিক ভাবে

রোগের প্রকোপ যাবে |

বুঝতে হবে কি ভাবে সে

সঠিক পদক্ষেপে

সবার কাছে দেওয়া যাবে

স্বাস্থ্য-তথ্য মেপে |

ধীরে ধীরে এমন ভাবেই

ঘটবে যে উন্নতি ;

স্বাস্থ্য রাখার খরচ ও তাই

কমবে মানুষ প্রতি |

লেহন করছে নিজ ঠোঁট গুলি শাপদের দল যারা

জীবনের গান তবুও থামেনা প্রাবল্য দুর্দম-
কেউ পারবেনা থামাতে এ গান-হোক যতো নির্মম।
অমৃত হ'য়ে রয়ে যাবে যত সারল্য,নিষ্পাপ
একটা হারাবে-আসবে অনেক,নেই কোনো সন্তাপ।

কল্পনার ঐ অতল তলে
আকাশ নীলের মাঝে
লক্ষ শিশুর মন ভেসে যায়
সকাল-দুপুর-সাঁঝে।
কাজ মানে তার অকাজ মাঝে
পায় সে মনের স্ফুর্তি
দিক ভোলানো রোদের মাঝে,
সে মন ভোলানোর মূর্তি।
অভ্রলেহী স্বপ্ন নিয়ে
চেয়ে দেখে নভঃলোক
চেয়ে দেখে রূপ,কত অপরূপ
বিস্ময়াতুর চোখ।
হরিত্‍ মনের বিস্তার মাঝে
নীল আকাশের ডাক-
ডাকে ঐ সাদা,ছোট-বড়,লাল
দূরে মেঘেদের ঝাঁক।
ঐ ডাকে সাড়া দিতে আজ মন
যায় ছুটে ঐ দূরে,
রূপের আলোকে ঝলসিত
কার ঐ অন্তঃপুরে।

Lonelyness-creativity-addiction

2008-07-11T01:54:00.000+05:30

Creativity is, no doubt,the absolute out come of some kind of lonelyness.Lonelyness gives rise to a typical vacuum in the sense of fulfilment of the person concerned. They get lots of persons around them to communicate to; but here may be seen two distinct incidences:-
   1.Either they can not communicate properly.
   2.Or,some times they communicate and mix well with the fellw persons but still they remain in the clutch of the lonelyness.
Now,due to this lonelyness there is an enormous tendency to express the self the more the possible. This arge for expression itself is expressed in the following two ways:-
1. Expression of thoughts(recurrent or new) in the persons very own style.
2. Doing something else to prove the capacity and thus to satisfy the self.
   The above two are the two ways of interaction of a lonely-feeling person to himself/herself because the person himself/herself is his or her all time partner!
   Like other things in the world , lonelyness also have some negative aspects.Some times some persons argue that, the creativity demands for addiction or addiction is precondition of creativity or some other trashes like these. But what probably occurs in these cases are as follows-
   The feeling of lonelyness may be the culprit. After introduction to some addiction causing agents the persons get the feeling of engagement and the lonelyness is somewhat ward off for a brief time period; gradually this habit culminate into addiction to some thing. The moral character of the person,regarding marital/extramarital relationship or,sexual life of the person,is some times distorted in a ugly fashion(which is as noxious as the prementioned addiction is), which is much evident from the biography of some of the legends in the fields of fine arts, literature/poetry, vocal/instrumental music etc.
   ** Especially,the ugly types of of mental distortion is much common in the field of arts and is rare in the field of science-the cause behind this typical distribution pattern is not clearly known to the writer.
**BUT it is also proved documentarily that the ugly disposition of mind of any person regarding marital/extramarital relationship can be checked AND IT MUST BE CHECKED.Other types of addictions,which can also be suppressed, are also to be checked because they are also much harmful to the body of the addicted person and also are harmful to immature mental make up &/or body of the children and the young members of the most modern generation.
   **The victory over the bad effects of lonelyness is,though difficutlt because of its intrinsic nature, not impossible to attain; the only material which is required is the continuous war and if required, the help of Yoga can be taken,which will be of great help.
   ¤*At last it can be said that EVERY ONE HAVE TO COMPLETELY UTILISE THE ADVANTAGES OF LONELYNESS AND THE 'BEAUTY' SHOULD BE EXTRACTED OUT OF IT WHILE THE ILL EFFECTS ARE TO BE WARD OFF BY SERIOUS AND ACTIVE METHODS. Then it will be possible to TEST THE TASTE OF AESTHETIC BEAUTY OF FULLNESS OF LIFE !

Country-A partial concept

2008-07-02T22:53:00.000+05:30

The concept of country is a partial one.But as it is a conventional custom,it will continue to remain as such with its all effects.
From the earliest of human civilisation man got the essence of protective effect of collective living. From then on population groups started to develop. From this time different human races in different parts of the world remained confined in groups as there were on transport system. As the members of groups started to spread slowly to nearby areas to find out better pasture for their domesticated herbivorous animals or for hunting purpose or for better water supply shelter etc, groups were being separated from each other,though are not far away.Thus from intrinsic interest of the different groups of people, who were living a little away from each other,started to make out area demarcation,as is also seen in case of any subhuman animals like dog,tiger etc....(contd.)

Reservation

2008-07-01T14:04:00.000+05:30

After showing full respect to The Constitution of India,it can be said that, the current mode of Reservation is a real problem of India, though it is approved by The Constitution of India.It influences spheres like occupation, education,employment.It has ill effects that override all its intended holly goals.
*Its main important effects are:-

1.It makes the socially backward classes stand on their own legs and provedes them the minimum requirements for life,which were out of rich of these people before,and frequently more than the bare minimum.

2.These people have themselves got self- confidence;because of their economic independence.

3.To some extent they have been able to ward off the inhuman nature and enormous bad impact of castism on themselves by using the influence of All-mighty Money.

   *But its ill impacts and limitations are also greater in number(which are apparently not vivid but are enough to eat into the integrity of the society)as are follows:-

1.It only focuses on the social inequality and not at all on the economic one, which is rather more important in this current trend of globalisation, liberalisation & privatisation.

2.There are also peoples of General Cast who live in the down most Economic strata of the country( B.P.L or far below the B.P.L.;B.P.L.=Below the Poverty Line). The current reservation policy can not provide them required economic strength.

3.The limitation number 2 also give rise to intolerance in the general cast peoples who essentially dwell B.P.L. & thus it further cause destruction to the originally divided social structure.
The grave impact of this kind of reservation is most vividly seen in most provinces of India.

4.The Reservation policy itself stands for legal separation of casts or castism,which is not at all wanted from the Law!

   **Probable alternative:-
It would be more fruitful and healthy one if the reservation is done on the basis of the economic condition of the Citizens to destroy the economic inequality, because the privilage of one social-group may render other groups envious and thus may cause more distinct ill effects of castism.
As a demand of the changing time it would be a practical and auspicious step towards the conservation of the rights of the citizens of India.
   To do so the respective authority can frame a machinary to isolate the poor but intelligent students,irrespective of cast and tribe and to provide them economic support to carry on their studies. In cases of unemployed persons there should be a machinary to locate the essentially needy persons and then to allot employment as per priority,if the total employment,which is the ultimate and the best way no doubt,can not be possible for the time being.

   ***The current policy of reservation can also be continued at the same time safely if the followings are followed:-

1.Separating out the persons who are under coverage of the reservation policy but belong to the economically affluent group. Then they should be placed in the mainstream group of people and giving no benefit of reservation.

2.Giving no economic support to the persons who get benefit of reservation and vice versa.
3.Finding out the truely needy persons without bias.
Let the TIME decide the further outcome!
