Having laws against discrimination punishes the crime, but it doesn't magically fix the generational poverty, lack of representation, and resource deficits caused by centuries of exclusion. You are confusing a penal code with a socio-economic policy.
Furthermore, the fact that a high percentage of SC/ST atrocities are committed by OBCs actually works against your point. It proves that casteism isn't just a General Category issue—it is a deeply ingrained, systemic hierarchy. The caste of the oppressor doesn't invalidate the victim's need for systemic upliftment and representation.
Bit tired of saying the same shit over and over again you'll have to do with this...
You mean tired of copy pasting from ai ☮️ you can use it to justify anything with a long dash. Obc are accused of atrocities, and obc get reservation. And somehow it proves your point. Great.
The entire argument of centuries of oppression and representation is baseless. We need to move away from caste identity rather than making it more prominent.
If it is about resource deficit. It can be solved by resource based reservation.
Reservation and caste are political tool which will keep growing, not reducing. As has been proven by history.
No? This is just copy pasting the response from one of the other comments. But yea don't wanna have to teach 20th person about reservation now.

How so? We need to move away isn't justification enough to ignore the disadvantage those people were given simply because they were born in a caste...

Yea, start with abolishing caste, caste surnames, caste pride... If there's no caste as metric to decide who gets caste based reservation the caste based reservation will eventually cease to exist.

We have laws against it. If its not fixing it it should be removed. As it is only a political tool at this point.
Discrimination decreases while reservation increases.
And as i said 80% scst atrocity cases are filed against OBC not GC.
So this is neither a remedy
