Educated Indians, pathetic or crooked

Educated Indians are not challanging pre-1947 law that forbids a
student to appear at college/university entrance examinations if not
sent by headmaster/principal of a government recognised school.

In contrast read following.

"The High Court in the Indian capital, Delhi, has overturned a law
which banned women from serving alcohol in public places.

Two judges ruled that the 1914 legislation was unconstitutional.

They said the law violated a woman's fundamental right to equality and
to choose her own profession.

They were ruling on a petition filed by the Hotel Association of India
and two women hotel employees, who said the law was damaging their
career prospects.

Judges Mukul Mudgal and HR Malhotra agreed.

They said the law prohibiting women from serving alcohol was an
impediment to their career in the hospitality industry.

The restrictions imposed effectively ruled women out of the essential
functioning of the industry, they argued.

Since alcohol was served not only in bars but also in restaurants, at
banquets and even in hotel rooms, a woman's right to advance her career
in the hospitality industry would be severely jeopardised, their ruling
said.

"It is undeniable that women have excelled in the hospitality industry
not only in this country but worldwide," the judgement said.

"And the feminine touch indeed lends grace and elegance to the
hospitality industry, which grace and elegance is not inherently suited
to the male disposition," it added.

Anoushka, a student from Europe who has just finished a bar tender's
course in India, said: "It's a great thing. I just hope it works
because things take a long time in India to change.""

Interestingly Hotel Industry goes to court against british-time law
that hinders healthy growth of the Industry.

Educated parents of India meekly of with ill-designs submit to
british-time law and soil their children in school corruption at age as
little as 3.
