Racialism
Reverse discrimination, known as positive discrimination in the United Kingdom[1] is the practice of favouring a historically disadvantaged group at the expense of members of a historically dominant group (usually in university admissions or employment).[2] The term is often used to describe the perceived effects of government policies (most notably affirmative action).
For example, in India, the term is often used by the citizens protesting against reservation and quotas.
