I totally agree with you that women make better politicians because they are: 1. Caring 2. Corruption is not a concern 3. Are less shameful than men 4. World harder and with more focus.
However, with regard to your support for Alina Saldanha, what exactly has she done while a minister in Parrikar’s cabinet. She seemed overwhelmed, a Parrikar Bhakti and showed none of the spine with regard to what mattered. Definitely another woman needed. Roland.
