    "content": "Mr. Temporary Chairman, Sir, on the same lines, I think the importance of this amendment is to look at the working structure as it is right now. I do not think it is something totally new. We have the police reservists in some of our counties. We understand, just as Sen. Hargura has said, that we know how it works. We know that the majority of the people who have offered themselves to work for the community and to protect the communities or to deal with the security of the communities, most of them do not know how to read and write. Probably, those who know how to read and write will go and look for other jobs and not necessarily do the work of a reservist. So, this whole issue of having the ability to read and write, I want to echo that it is something we need to look at. Probably, it should not be there. Even putting the limit of 60 years of age, there are people who are 60 years of age and they are doing the reservist work even now. So, what are we saying; that they go on retirement when they are the people who understand the whole terrain? The age issue and the ability to read and write is something that we need to re-look at. I would propose that it actually be deleted and done away with."
