No more quota politics - Pioneer
The Supreme Court’s order last Friday to set aside the Uttar Pradesh Government’s decision to allow reservation in Government job promotions comes as a huge relief for many in that State who were frustrated by the free play of quota politics.

Verbatim

Nothing epitomises Congress's oligarchic culture, hinging on a power cabal that centres in a ‘High Command', than disgraced former Union Minister  for Law and Justice Ashwani Kumar's parting statement in his own defence while demitting office. “Whatever the PM and the party High Command thought fit, as a loyal foot soldier, I have done, and I am proud of the fact that I have been a loyal foot soldier of the party”.

But not in the Congress's scheme of things, which, in the final reckoning, is a matter of perpetuating the Nehru-Gandhi family's hegemony.
