  Analysis based on the Entropy estimates of the society is carried out on a
mathematical model in this paper, to make an assessment of Reservation policy
presently in operation in India. The Reservation Policy was provisioned in the
constitution of India under the policy of affirmative action. The policy makers
had identified some communities of India that were being discriminated
socially. They identified them by noticing their dismal representation in
positions of power and respect, within the society. It was argued that these
communities are required to be treated differently to give them equal
opportunity in the society. The policy makers had provisioned in the same
policy that the effectiveness of this policy will be analyzed at regular
intervals to decide its continuation or improvisation. An attempt is made here
to scientifically analyze the effectiveness of this policy and suggest possible
improvements in the same. As per the understanding of Entropy, a policy such as
the Reservation Policy, that is intended to encourage equality must be
associated with increase in the Entropy of the society. After a careful
mathematical analysis, it is shown here that the policy, in its present form,
is designed to increase the entropy of the society in the short-term scenario
but is an iso-entropic policy in the long term. A way has been suggested to
complement the policy to make the entropy increased effectively and
permanently.
