1971 Kalaignar was the CM who actually formed the Sattanathan Commission and implemented the 49% quota. MGR was an MLA. Giving MGR credit for Kalaignar’s CM policies just because he 'was in the party' is wild logic 👍☺️
1980 MGR didn't hike it to 68% out of love for social justice; it was pure damage control. he actually tried to REMOVE reservations for BCs earning over ₹9k/year in 1979.
He got absolutely thrashed in the 1980 LS elections for it, panicked, scrapped his own rule, and blindly hiked it to 50% to save his vote bank.
1989 That 'just 1%' Kalaignar did was actually the creation of the 20% MBC/DNC quota. Because of MGR's blind 50% hike, advanced communities were hogging all the seats. Kalaignar stepped in and restructured it so the most marginalized communities actually got representation.
Reservation isn't just a volume contest to see who can increase the number the highest. it's about targeted, systematic representation which Kalaignar engineered perfectly. That's the visionary planning you guys miss.

@SixEyedTyrant Kalaingar raised it by just 9% (That too 8% when MGR was in the DMK), so technically he increased it by only 1%, while MGR raised it significantly by 19% x.com/Its_DineshKuma…
