Re: Quota system-is it justified: split from Karachi blood bath
Speaking as a mohajir/urdu speaking urban sindhi... there is nothing wrong in principle with the quota system. barring giving this group or that a few percentage points more or less (that I havent looked into so I cant say if its needed). Urdu speaking people are, because of their historical background, and because of where they live, the second most privileged class of people in the country after urban northern punjabies. Those who cry about discrimination havent lived in some of the less privileged places, where things we take for granted such as teachers, schools, books, parents who can understand english/urdu etc are all hurdles to overcome. To challenge other groups to compete on open merit under those conditions is like challenging people to run a 100 yard race with you with a 60 mile head start. It is anything but fair.
