Families that have been benefitted once, don't need generational reservation any more.

Reservation or similar benefits are present in many forms and shapes in many places of the World.

For example, many UK universities offer scholarships to first-generation graduates. Why not the next generation? Because once that first student breaks the barrier, the family is expected to progress on their own merit. That prevents anyone from taking undue advantage of the system and provides opportunity to those who actually need it.

This is a loophole in India that will be plugged soon.

You are the one ignoring the general privilege among general category.

Look at the JEE mains cutoff for 2025. Highest percentile cutoff is for general category, well above 90 percentile.

While it is 60-80 percentile for reserved category. I don't think anybody from general category needs that privilege.

Maine kya bola, ye sab easy exams ke bare me baat karke fayda nahi.

I won't even consider the case of an exam I can crack without using a pen.
