A post is going viral on social media that claims that Shilpa Shetty has given her opinion about the reservation system in India. As per the post, Shilpa favoured the removal of the reservation system in India.

What’s the Context?

For the last 2- 3 days, an Instagram page by the name of Reservation Hatao Movement is surging rapidly, with nearly 3 million followers acquired in the last 24 hours.

Many netizens are making videos of themselves where they are expressing their support in order to remove the reservation system in India permanently.

A post has gotten the attention of the netizens, which alleges that Bollywood actress Shilpa Shetty has given a sarcastic response about the reservation system in India.

“Dont touch reservation. Let general category doctors treat only general category patients and let everyone else treat only patients from their own caste. Do this for a few years and people will start asking to end caste based reservation themselves. You can’t get skill through reservation ✌️

— The Viral post alleges that Shilpa Shetty said so

Did Shilpa Shetty said the Viral Statement on Reservation?

No. There is no official account where such a statement from Shilpa Shetty has been released about the reservation system in India. Such a viral post looks an intent from individuals who want to draw attention to the current campaign of the Reservation Hatao Movement by using her name without her consent.

While many netizens observed that the post seems fake, they took a jibe at the political parties for not having the spine to remove reservation from India.
