Please refrain from using caste/community name alias So called titles / family names

Its been almost a year that i wrote .now back to my usual business :)

I always wondered why people use caste/community name as part of their names like singh,iyer,naicker,etc .To my shock i nowadays see more people in social networking websites updating their last name and including their caste name.I was curious why still people uses that and the reply i got for that is "it's my family name"

I have one question for all those people ,"A family name is name that is used for one single family ,but i see huge chunk of families use that,how can you then justify it as YOUR family name? "

If two people are meeting for first time,it will do if it is just to introduce them as siva and rahul instead of siva xxxx and rahul xxxx.Other person only needs to know a detail to call you and not ur caste or ur social caste background.

I think we youth should move ahead of all these caste/community stuffs.we should be bold enough to remove it from our names ,if not at least not keep our kids name as iyers,singhs,etc .

If you need to move towards socially equal society and come out of these social barriers ,first small step is to remove caste name from yours.In the longer vision,say after 20 years ,ban the issue of community certificate and imprison school/organization who asks for caste/community in their applications.

New way to end communa.l clash

Nowadays we have so many problems in our country.One of age old problem is that of communal clashes.we have lost so many lives in this problem.Instead of speaking and asking people to maintain peace when there is crisis.One way of solution as per me would be by bringing in reservation.the present way reservation is not so effective to solve this issue .

So bring a some major percentage of reservation to people belonging to the group of Mixed marriages that is ;people who married other caste,community,religion.Bring about more than 30% resevation in education,jobs and in all other fields..also take off the present way of reservation.in this way people may look for other caste religion,community,relgion and slowly in a decade or so the impact of the communal problems would decrease;
