Love or hate India’s male-dominated politics, you can’t ignore politics. 15th Lok Sabha polls are around the corner. Forget about the United Progressive Alliance (UPA), or the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) or the 3rd Front. It’s time to introspect that women in India have less than 10 percent representation in Parliament even though they make up 44 percent of the voting population. The fact is that the much talk about 30 percent women’s reservation bill is gaining dust in Parliament. Is politics a distant cry for women in India or a time say no to political parties who have no tickets for womne women…? Where are women journalists? Are they lending their voice for women’s empowerment in politics?
