Such a blot on GIFT city and Gujarat. More proof that we have a long way to go.
To those who think reservations are meant only for the poor, do you have anything to say now?
Gujaratis may prefer cohabitating with Gujaratis, but that is not 'caste' discrimination. Seems to me the dude is trying to hype up.
Do you seriously think he'd risk so much over a "misunderstanding"?
Even if it is how you state it, that's still discrimination. There's no moral or legal justification for this, "preferences" doesn't really cut it.
@Gupchup clearly have not read the article in question. ""The situation escalated quickly with nearly 30 people gathering, threatening me with dire consequences if I proceeded," Anirudh Kejriwal wrote." that is not preference, that is breaking the law by not allowing a person to stay in a house he owns.
There is nothing wrong in someone wanting to protect their existing culture. There is beauty in preserving an inherent culture, by opening it to everyone it would go away. This guy is using caste card to embarrass them. We all know what happens when we let migrants in to your home too much. It's the same everywhere, first they go and take the local set up for granted. Don't learn their language, don't try to be part of it. Won't even care when the local culture disappears, the moment a local objects to it, they go to Twitter and start this randi rona.
No one does caste discrimination anymore. But caste or otherwise, food language and behavior defines boundaries, irrespective of caste those should be respected
So you would advocate for gujju only societies? How about cities and state, or country? Where do you draw the line when it comes to preserving "culture"?
Because by your logic no Muslims or any other religion should be living in Gujarat simply because it's a Gujarati majority state.
If the society is formed by them, then it's up to them.
New societies get created right? Let them move there. And there are plenty where this concept of preservation doesnt exists. Let him scout that. Why keen on disrupting a well knit one.
Multiculturalism doesn't necessarily equate to have a mixed culture within your family. Besides Muslims enforce this even more strictly within their cohorts.
I can vouch for Anirudh personally. I have known him for years. Very nice and gentle person. He has mentored a lot of juniors at JPMorgan and helped in their careers.
I remember the dialogue from NH10 movie, where the police officer is asked about Caste discrimination by Anushka Sharma says, Jaise hi aap Connaught place se 20km duur aate ho, waha apke Constitution khatam ho jaata hai
Bhai padh le news kya hai baad me vouch aauch krna

Seems like prohibition isnt the only reason why GiFT wont be ever able to compete with mumbai

Should we go to USA for better life?? Even if we have job in india with 25LPA.
And get shot by a white guy screaming "go back to your country"
Any ways to end something like this? Atleast for our kids in the future,kinda worried about,where things are heading tbh.
I have been thinking about reservations in jobs and also in the exam cut offs.
Reservation was given to the Scheduled Castes and Tribes because they had no land ownership and they were also oppressed throughout history. To uplift them f...
