It is rightly said that “Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world” so, to change the face of our country we need to change the education system by amending the reservation policy. The present reservation policy which was then formulated to up lift the minorities is infringing the Fundamental Rights of the citizens as the circumstances does not remain as then and at large minorities are misusing this policy. The country has reached at a stage where the minorities are capable to stand on equal footing with the general category students. Moreover, we need to understand that allotting seat merely on the basis of caste is degrading the quality of the education institution. If at all the policy cannot be repealed, then the reservation criteria needs to be changed in the sense that the percentage cut off must be increased or else the economically weak and meritorious students should reservation instead of getting the reservation on the basis of an individual’ s caste. The research was conducted in order to know the views of the students regarding the policy ways to change the present reservation policy with the help of open ended questionnaire. To which 95% students supported the notion that reservation policy needs to be amended. Therefore, this matter needs to be addressed as an urgent requirement of the hour and the present reservation policy needs to be changed so as to refine the education quality of our country.
