Every body knows that the MPs of ruling and opposition made lot of noice over the issue. But Actually everybody want is a share on the cake that's it. If we consider the issue, plainly speaking, there should not be any gender bias at all After all both male and female share the same things on earth including power. But One thing to make note is that the law considers females from the cities only....! The women empowerment programs running nowadays through out the country allows only 'Babuji's Beevi ko secratary banaye' like that... The real poor female won't even allowed to look into that part of the power politics. But they are used in rally's and seminars. My opinion is sharing 50 - 50 seats is a good idea but not with the village females - since that may resemble the garland in hands of monkeys...! They must be trained first in order to take care of the power they are getting otherwise every thing will be a mess...
