Is so much reservation 50% for Odisha Domicile justified for XIMB? Does that affect the batch quality?

The basic question here comes up is "Does reservations put the higher education system under any loss or such changes due to it?". This is the most generally discussed question. People often end up thinking students who come through reservation are not that skillful compared to those who do not.

Both the reserved and unreserved categories of students are offered an equal distribution or quality of education throughout their academic years, there is no partiality done in between both the categories teaching-wise or score expectation-wise. Faculties do not give an easy project to the reserved ones neither the unreserved ones get a hard one. It does not matter who belongs from the reserved or unreserved category, everyone has to put their same effort to meet the expectations of the program, so in the overall process, no one can drag down the batch quality.

It is acceptable that reservation does unjust to a few of the worthy ones who do not get their deserved education or career despite qualifying or having the expected scores, but it is wrong to think that due to this the reserved ones need to suffer.

Let's take a look at XIMB's certain cases of reservations.

• XIMB reservations are far better than institutes that are run by the government such as the IIMs, where SC + ST + OBC reservation categories easily acquire more than 50% of its reservations.
• XIMB has space only for domicile reservations and there no reservations are made based on caste, creed, etc.

Besides, if we look up the difference in cutoff between general and reserved category students in IIM or a Govt. run institutes and the difference in cutoff between XIMB domicile and the students who do not belong from the domicile category, it can be seen that the difference is more pronounced in the case of the former.
