Have the politician succeeded in dividing the Indian youth???

Caste-based bias rampant in AIIMS from NDTV

On Tuesday, elections to the Resident doctors association saw all pro-reservation candidates withdraw just a day before polling leaving only one contestant per post.

"The elections polarised, a meeting was held by director where it was decided to hold elections, what was the hurry to hold elections, the atmosphere is quite charged up right now," said Dr Sunil Chumber, Vice Dean, AIIMS.

Fight to continue

Nevertheless, the administration declared the elections valid. And the doctors who have won say they will continue to fight caste-based quotas.

Pro-reservation students say the caste-based discrimination at AIIMS has become even uglier after the anti-quota agitation.

Reserved category students have vacated their rooms and are now restricted to just one block of the hostel.

For the first time about a week ago, 40 students complained to the Director. But so far, there's been no action.

What's worrying is that what happens at this premier medical college seems to set a precedent for the rest of the country.
