For all the rhetoric on women’s empowerment, women’s issues have not come together into enforceable standards. Women are mobilised as voters but issues such as respect, equality, agency, and security remain on the periphery.

BJP is an anti-women party. Women should not vote for BJP. The way they let rapists get away and instead rally in support of rapists, garland the rapists. In hathras, Unnao, Manipur, Revanna, Brij Bhushan, Sengar, kathua, Bilkis Bano. It’s not a one-off offence. It’s a pro-rapist party as long as the rapist support the party.
