Merit only for the senior most post.

The dispute, to make chief secretary, has now become a battle of moustache ,
This is a post where capable person can only be  posted,in this context, whosoever is capable -  he/she deserves the post, not  on the other basis of  criteria. If we politicize this type of  selection, then mind it, it will be irreparable loss to the country.
I agree,Women,Dalit, or Madheshi, any one, must be well represented in the organization, but  in the entry time ,not in the upper echelon without merit. Upper echelon should be given strictly on the merit basis who is capable to deliver ..
For the unprivileged class ,if they are equally meritorious in that case,  ofcourse ,this class people should get a chance and priority to serve. But not simply because someone is this or that.
Think coolly,if we do not go according to merit, then country will badly suffer and  there will be no any strong person in the secretariate, who can tell - this is right or wrong - to the non professional persons.
