Reservation for none. Job for every one through free English medium, job oriented education.
Jago Party would abolish all reservations in government jobs and educational institutions based on caste, religion, province etc. In its place, it would provide free & mandatory education to every child so that everybody is educated enough to get jobs on meirt.
As to education of the children, government would bear full cost /supplement the cost of education up to class 12 for any good standard private school. For college and vocational education, students would be given scholarships/soft loans, which they would repay in easy installments after they start earning. Many companies will come forward to train & hire. There is no dearth of jobs in India & abroad, if quality of education is good.
All children would be given education in English medium right from the beginning so that they have a full mastery over the language. It would give them easy access to the best possible technical and management knowledge and thus equip them to get maximum and best jobs in the Indian and world market. It would also provide them huge business opportunities on a global scale.
However, in addition to English, one local language (generally the mother tongue) would also be taught compulsorily as a subject throughout the school so that children are able to develop a mastery over this language also. This would enable them to be connected with their own people in a more intimate way and help them understand Indian/local culture in a better way.
If parents want their child to study in the medium of local language, they would be free to do so. Even such children would be provided free & mandatory education.
There would be only one syllabus for all schools and only one all India level examination conducted by one board at class 12.
The education system would be changed in such a way that it not only enables a student to be skilled for a job, but also promotes the joy of learning, scientific thinking and experimentation, rather than just memorizing the given information and passing examinations. It should enable students to become aware of the major cultures of the world, problems of the society and life and solve those problems in innovative & scientific ways.
The entire education - from elementary school to higher or technical education -- would be privatized. This would bring in healthy competition improving the quality of education, making it employment-oriented and bringing down the cost of study.
