What’s an “Anglo-Indian”? Someone of Hindu ethnicity who speaks English as their primary native language? Someone who’s ethnicity is mixed English/Hindu? Both?
How "multi-ethnic" is India compared to the U.S.?

Therefore, is India a more racist society/country than the U.S. on several orders of magnitude?
Where are all the race hustlers on the India question?

So basically, mixed-race Indians are banned from holding office?
If they want seats they should earn them. Affirmative action is the wrong way to do things for nonwhites in america and its the wrong way to do things for whites in india.
The Anglo-Indians in India will continue to have the right to vote and hold office, but there won’t be any seats reserved for them in the national or state assemblies. The reason is there are so few of them remaining. Anglo-Indians should vote, join political parties, and seek office based on political orientation, not based on ethnicity.
The government also considered eliminating seats reserved for two underclasses, but decided there wasn’t yet sufficient progress in eliminating discrimination against the members of these underclasses. Presumably, the reservation of these seats will be eliminated in the future.
I don’t like it.
BJP could appoint a couple White members of their party and pad their majority.
