Reservation for OC

Here is a notification:

Openings:
(Ref.No.F.1/117/2009-R-I) Seven Assistant Professors(Cardiology), Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, Central Health Service(Teaching Specialist Sub-cadre). Out of seven posts, two posts are reserved for SC, one post is reserved for ST & three posts are reserved for OBC candidates.

What is left my friends.. One post.. For which everyone is competing ...

Suppose there are 100 posts. Now the question is: Whether a OC male person with 20 rank gets a seat from 100 posts? Then the answer will be big "NO".

Why?
50% reservations for SC,ST and BC
5% minority reservations
33% Ladies reservation

And the remaining seats come under so called "Open Category". Generally in the counselling what happens is Open Category is filled first then they will fill for the Reservation category!!!!

This is utter nonsense according to me...
According to law all the reservations should not exceed more than 50%. But slowly for their own benefits politicians are increasing the reservation percentage in most of the states.
And what is happening is people are utilizing the reservation category and the toppers of that particular category are competiting in the Open Category(Which is already reduced).

Why a state first rank holder should not utilize the reservation seat if he has it? Why he goes for a open seat?

Nowadays what is happening is OC people are becoming the real minority section.
My anguish is ...
When there are some 20 seats in Open Category. A OC person with 21 rank will not get a seat if 20 reservation category people are there infront of him!

Think of it! Do you think this is a fair thing...
What is the solution for this?
Few people would say reservation based on financial status. I feel to make this happen it will take atleast one more generation time. Is it really possible in these times where people will produce certificates overnight stating their finacial income per year is 10000 per annum.

What i feel is.. The solution for this is .. "There should not be any open category" All 100% posts should be reserved for all the sections of the people. And in that way there should be reservation for OC also with some 10 to 20% reservation.
