But she is one proud dalit lady. It is difficult to carry the burden of that identity in a society like India. I appreciate her spirit and pride. Dalits need to assert their pride and confidence rather than letting themselves spoiled and mayawati has provided the breakthrough for them. Let's hope the dalits assert themselves confidently but without the corruption factor of Mayawati. And coming to corrution, most of Indian politicians are corrupt and it's not right to single out Mayawati and let's also hope she amends herself and provides a stable government to UP and lay foundations for UP to go about development path given that people have given her a clear mandate. I wish her all the best.

Chaintanya,
The biggest problem with our creed is the live in their own web of castes and they still swim in them. Our people have to cross the barriers and understand the realities.
Our greedy Politicians and Media keep our people so engrossed in petty and local issues so that they dont have time to think on larger threats surrounding us.
It time that some of us take initiative in this regard to establish organisations which educate the realities to our creed.
