What did the viral Vijay Varma’s post claim?
The post narrated the story of two students from different economic backgrounds preparing for a competitive examination. It attempted to explain the debate around reservation, privilege and equal opportunities, arguing that financial and social advantages can influence access to education and resources. It reads, “My father bought a Maruti 800 when I was born. By the time I reached Class 12, he bought me a Honda Civic. I used to go to coaching in that car, while my best friend, who was from a Marwari family, still rode a 12 year old Hero Honda. We appeared for a government exam. He scored well but didn’t get a seat. On the result day, he rode back home crying on his bike, while I was fine. I didn’t need a reservation but he did. It was his right. If not, then atleast a fair chance was his right.”
