Rarely do you get a chance to meet and talk with a public figure - TopicsExpress



          

Rarely do you get a chance to meet and talk with a public figure representing your constituency. During a plane ride last year, had the luck of speaking at length with Ruth Manorama - the Janata Dal (Secular) candidate from South Bengaluru. She is a champion of Dalit issues and calls Dalit women, the Dalits among Dalits. She has spent all her life working for their betterment. For her contributions, she has been awarded the Right Livelihood award, also known as the Alternative Nobel. While we gear up for the polls, its important to remember that there are candidates who have worked with the most underprivileged communities away from the limelight for their entire life and could just be the kind of leaders we are looking for.
