    Finally, the Judicial Committee drafts the “Prevention of Atrocities Against Grasshoppers Act” [PAAGA], with effect from the beginning of the winter.
    Arjun Singh makes ‘Special Reservation’ for Grasshoppers in Educational Institutions in Government Services.
    The Ant is fined for failing to comply with PAAGA and having nothing left to pay his retroactive taxes, it’s home is confiscated by the Government and handed over to the Grasshopper in a ceremony covered by NDTV.
    Arundhati Roy calls it ‘A Triumph of Justice’.
    Lalu calls it ‘Socialistic Justice’.
    CPM calls it the ”Revolutionary Resurgence of the Downtrodden’
    Koffi Annan invites the Grasshopper to address the UN General Assembly.
    Many years later...
    The Ant has since migrated to the US and set up a multi-billion dollar company in Silicon Valley,
    100s of Grasshoppers still die of starvation despite reservation somewhere in India,

    The reservation policy such as SC / ST should be abolished as we all are equal Indians. One should try and get ahead on his efforts / ability and not based on his cast / tribe. The law of the country has already integrated all the community of India together. Why the politically instigated community wants to disintegrate from the Indian community by calling them selves as SC / ST. Please do not trust these politically motivated persons. Work hard. Think intelligently, and be a part of intelligent community.

    As long as no proper title deed,they will live on those lands for generations.
    The moment the documents are cleared,they will sell all land except 5 cents to live.
    I think the authorities will prepare proper guidelines.
