He has been involved in many social welfare issues such as working in support of farmers, organizing education for the children of Dalit and hill communities, presenting ideas in support of LGBTQ people, appealing to the government to increase the salary of Anganwadi workers. In this case, actor Chetan Kumar has said that there is a need for caste-based reservation in the Indian cricket team.

“70% of the Indian cricket team is from the upper classes. There should be reservation in the team for those belonging to Scheduled Castes like SC and ST. Bringing reservation in cricket will improve team performance.

Taking the South African team as an example, the reservation system has been implemented since 2016. In that team, 6 players should be non-white and 2 should be black. It is well known how much cash flows the Indian cricket team has. If the Indian team wants to do well, reservation is necessary,” he said. While many people are supporting his opinion, some have questioned why he is trying to bring caste into the game. Post your views on Chetan Kumar’s opinion in the comments.
