POLITICS OF RAPE?

The unfolding drama in UP produced and directed by the ‘Dalit-ki-beti’ Chief Minister Mayawati arising from the deplorable statements (now claimed to be made in the heat of the moment) by the State’s Congress Chief Rita Bahuguna reflects the disgusting level of dirty politics which can be indulged in by our politicians.
It is all the more nasty because the central casts in the drama are women and the topic that is forgotten and lost in the desire to score political points relates to the unpardonable crime of rape which physically and mentally destroys womankind!!
Mayawati is quick and smart to extract political mileage by projecting herself as the ‘victim’ and linking it to caste/ST/SC/Dalit and other unrelated issues to target ‘vote banks’ which apparently ditched her during the recent elections – in which she was aspiring to become India’s Prime Minister. God has in His infinite wisdom saved India from a 'woman-made' catastrophe!!
The defeat in elections has made her like a ‘mad dog (bitch)’ biting perceived enemies and barking at shadows, completely oblivious to the decorum expected from the CM’s desk.
Her vision is so narrow and limited that she is unable to come out of her trench mentality and ghetto thought process by clutching to ‘Dalit’ identity even after rising to the high office of CM. Abuse of power and resources is becoming her distinctive style.
Her actions/speech/body language all point to the lack of pedigree and is the blunt truth that needs to be pointed out to her by sycophants with ulterior motives and other hangers on with personal agendas. Some one should guide her to join a good 'finishing school' to learn basic manners and how to behave as a public figure.
It will take a few more generations for Dalits to overcome their unfortunate legacy if the opportunity that Mayawati has been given by Indian democracy is trivialized and wasted in cheap politics and ugly rhetoric trying to play the role of a greedy victim unable and unwilling to rise to the occasion by showing leadership.
