General Forum: Current 'Affairs' | | Pakistani Patriarchal mind-set is better than that of Indian! Yes.... | |
| How 'Quota within Quota' issue can be called CULTURAL ORTHODOXY? It is your very own friends viz. Mulayam Singh Yadav and Lalu Yadav who are advocating this idea.

It's a false opinion Kiranji....
They are not my friends!

India was under the rule of one 'all-powerful prime minister' for 15 years and is now under the rule of a 'de facto' prime minister. Can anybody provide any 'improvement' or 'deterioration' statistics for representation of women in those days vesus these days?
For that matter, how good was this ratio under Mr. Bhutto's rule and his daughter's rule?
Mr. Pit & Pendulum - 'Do not you remember the Telugu proverb ''dunnapOtumeeda varshaM? Do you think that both the Yadavs can forget their obscurantism in their life-time?

It's not ironic, but tragedy, considering the higher overall winning ratio for women candidates. 45 women: 498 are not at all satisfactory under any standards in this so called liberated Indian democracy. The reason for this tragic state of affairs is simple. What religious orthodoxy doing in Pakistan is doing the same in India by attempting to divide women by means of caste parochial designs also! Interestingly the representation in Pakistani national legislature is 21.3 per cent and in India it's just 8.3! It says that Pakistani patriarchal mind-set is less selfish than that of Indian. A political party in Pakistan who failed in their political system now targeting women to strengthen its roots by emphasizing cultural orthodoxy, while in India we have a party in which a senior leader have gone on record decrying the struggle of women for equality and dignity e.g., the International Conference of Women at Beijing, a woman leader who provoked women to stand by their brothers as they prepared themselves for a 'war for the Hindu temple of Ram' and another woman leader who mobilized women in favor of 'Sati', saying it a glorious Indian tradition! In India we have political leaders who made strategies to counter the cultural orthodoxy by raising the issue of ‘quote within quota’ issue regarding Women’s Reservation Bill. It’s nothing but divisions within divisions by means of ‘Divide and Rule’, a colonial strategy again! Under circumstances, another political party put forth the ludicrous proposal to increase the strength of the Lok Sabha to 900, and that proves that patriarchal selfishness is not interested to share power with women equally, but trying to liquidate the competitiveness among women. The statistics given by The Hindu in that editorial substantiates the above argument, and speaks voluminous about cheap and cunning patriarchal prejudicial selfishness deeply rooted in the system. Because of this even when the strike rate of women in elections is higher than that of men, they are made to beg for 33 per cent quote though they are fifty per cent of the population. Only ‘No Equal Representation, No Vote’ like slogan by Indian women make them win among these oddball ideas against their presence. They must give a ‘shock’ to that set up that has built around them. Otherwise they bound to wait, perhaps, another century for equal representation in the Legislatures.
