Dalits blown

Couldn't materialise, of class. For Sonia would sure not render up her one-woman lot, the Legislature, to conjoin Mayawati's one-woman recipient, the BSP, or vice versa. But what if both Sonia and Mayawati were to dispense up their parties and start a form new, all-women organization (Shakti?), along with separate notability members of their sorority masking the intact gamut of the governmental and ethnic spectrum, ranging from Jayalalithaa, Uma Bharti and Sushma Swaraj, to Kiran Bedi, Anjolie Ela Menon, Arundhati Roy and Aishwarya Bachchan (nee Rai)? Preposterous? Perhaps not. Dalits blown their own band (the BSP) as an antidote to thousands of years of regular repression by higher castes. Opposite castes, specified as the Yadavs, also hump their own parties; in fact, the Yadavs score two, Lalu's RJD and Mulayam's SP. So why can't - or won't - women, who arguably form the maximal one historically inhibited caste in Bharat, discriminated against in everything from kilocalorie use to business development, feminine foeticide to dowry deaths, not comprise their own semipolitical band as a contour of empowerment and sexuality endorsement? A women's political company (which could permit or essay connection from empathetic males) would at erst do departed with the 13-year-long demeaning argufy over women's statement in Parliament - a unexhausted crumb of nippy status flung at them from the altitudinous fare of patriarchal people.
