A State Like Kerala Has Reduced That Criteria

A state like Kerala has reduced that criteria. They have said the income has to be much lower than 8 lakh. Is that the solution to it? I would not say that in itself is the solution but it is part of the solution. The other part of the problem was that you are excluding most of the poor by saying that you are already getting a quota under SC or ST or OBC. So why should you get any benefit for being poor? But if your upper cast and poor would not this then say benefit you? Yes in some sense remember there is a creamy layer principle for OBCs which is again very similar 8 lakhs per annum though there are some minor differences,
