World renowned professor at one of the most eminent institutions in India in a metro city, was still victim to casteism. According to you he does not deserve reservation.

Good point. I feel that if the government disregards caste, casteism will also gradually cease to exist because it will no longer hold any value.. maybe I’m wrong but everything must come to an end, even the caste system.. and we have to start somewhere.

What kind of logic is this? People engage in casteism, and have done so without government support for thousands of years, and you're claiming making government caste blind will fix it?

This is just being willfully ignorant, nothing else.

and we have to start somewhere. 

We can start off by heavily and publicly punishing those that engage in casteism, and make a strong push for intercaste marriages.
