The memorandum submitted to the Collector, further said that the proposal is completely against the substance of the Indian Constitution and equal opportunity practice.

Adding, that the proposal will be injustice to the lakhs of aspirants in the villages and those competing under local dialects as there is major discrepancy in school admission age thereby reducing preparation and competition chances further.

The memorandum also said that this retrogressive decision will have an adverse impact on the leadership quality of Civil Servants and the gap between efficient and inefficient workers will increase further.  This retrogressive experiment has the full potential of destroying the capabilities and skills at village level and is an utter human rights violation leading to brain drain.
