Zahra comments : Tarannum: Hello! Thanks for a very interesting read by a fellow Geminian :) It had taken me somewhile to understand who are the Dalits. Reading history in my childhood, I have always known the word shoodur than dalits. After watching the movie, Lagaan, I had a better understanding of the semantics. Your narrative conveys a very optimistic picture.
I look forward to the day when we have women punchayat leaders in Pakistan and there is no need for having any foolish, retarded and deranged men running any kind of punchayats and making the fun of everything. I hope my generation is lucky to see that day in very near future, inshallah.
Good luck in conveying the accomplishments of the less talked about creatures of God.
Rajeev Singh comments : i agree with ur viewpoint that dalit women perform fairly well in village level politics but it is generally found that real exercise of power is done by male member of the family and women r puppet in their hands.
V.Sethuramalingam comments : The informations found in your article/report are interesting. Dalit women are perform well enenthoug they are facing problems. I am also doing research in this field. What is going on in this area is the dalit village panchayat elected leaders are facing problems as women and also as dalit women.
