To start with, I belong to a privileged community on both sides as my parents did ICM.

Magnitude of horrible things I have seen in native place from my mom's side in village of Karnataka is absolutely sickening. They are poured water from above, not allowed in temples many a times, dominant castes hate them and get jealous for sitting on same table. I often imagine what goes in mind of a dalit kid brought up in such setting. Kids who grow up and achieve things are often ridiculed in village for using reservation. Data sets on various socioeconomic things is pretty clear. Least obvious thing a dominant/UC caste individual can do is be empathetic and admit society is screwed.

I feel happy whenever I see kid from marginalised community achieve greater things, it's a ray of hope. I hope these communities achieve greater economic success. That's the only way to change status quo in this country.

I agree we all pay taxes. Despite paying tax, I don't get to avail scholarship, social security schemes, fee reimbursements in many states without having a nativity card, which can be voter id or a state specific card.

I don't get to buy land or other kind of properties in some states stating native protection rights.

In case of this scheme, if I'm not wrong, only voter id is required to avail the scheme. Is it too difficult to do that?

We live in an independent house in Old Bengaluru and our house consumption is nowhere near to ever avail the scheme ( not that we want to), but we see many top percentile income payers on internet being sad about not being eligible for the scheme.

Agree or not, every state has preference for its own people and to join the natives,the criteras are pretty easy as of now. Some states have special rights.
