Democracy; how it deals with justice

It's the continuation of my previous writing about Democracy, its relevance, merits and demerits. Actually I on purpose don't compile them together, so as to draw the readers' attention on particular issues with specific reference, so that they could participate according to their plight and philosophies, in the process of social justice. Today, the thing that triggered me writing the another installment of this subject, was the unjustified, Democratic decision that the previous BJP led government in Rajasthan took and present Congress led government implemented.
The Gujjar (Gurjar) community got 5% reservation by the State government of Rajasthan. Since they had the population and strength to teeter the Democratic government. They say, they are providing justice who were deprived for it for thousands of years, then on what cost are they doing it? By suppressing others they are allotting justice to so called oppressed? First of all no one can oppress anyone if the unit has got virtues, secondly, even if we consider that they were oppressed in the past, for that the present alleged Upper cast should suffer now to equalize the equation? Is this the way Humanity goes? The discrimination, if at all was done by present so called upper cast people, for that their progeny should suffer? Secondly, people who say it must be based on Economics, then does a progeny of a rich not has the right to study in a reputed, better institution and attain knowledge and skills? From where this form of Justice came? Why can't these so called deprived be given free forms, stationary, hostel facilities in cities, Books and reference materials, cheaper loans, concession over Library books and many more constructive and positive efforts that government can put to establish real justice and equality? Why they provide Direct Seats to some particulars? Well, this is the way democracy goes. I read an article, where an Indian Christian (Actually in India there wasn't Christianity before some selfish souls sold their conscience to it on the cost of their rich ancestral heritage), who was praising a Principal who provided reservation for Dalit christians in a Delhi based institution, and was declaring himself as being the saviour of poors; this person must know that any sort of direct reservation to anyone is the Biggest sin any system can have (specially education system). Now I wonder whether he would ever read it, as I was unable to write a comment as not being the member of that proprietary writing place, most probably set up by that person himself. This sort of Democracy is far dangerous than even a Saddam like autocratic rule, because there a single soul is sinful and here the sin is being committed by a large group, so quantity is multiplied. Till such Democratic system ends for Nationalistic AristoDemoCracy, innocent people will have to suffer. It was a significant day for all observers to see how Gujjars got reservation, and then to analyze in which way our Democracy is heading? As I have warned in many of my previous writings, this Reservation policy will eventually lead to a bloodshed and will one day put the Integrity of this, "The most ancient and greatest civilization of India", in a grave danger. Still we have got time, broadminded people should come forward and fuel efforts to eliminate such Injustice and root out this Democracy, which is a rule of the number not the wisdom, truth, justice and mankind.
