Noted academician Madhu Purnima Kishwar of the Centre for Study of Developing Societies and founder of Manushi, a womens rights journal, has been in the news for her chronicles on Modi, called Modinama, in which she critiqued the media and human rights activists for falsely demonising Modi after the Gujarat riots of 2002. Now she says “Modi’s appointment of Irani came as a horrible shock to me. Here is someone who is not just poorly educated and mal-educated – she is just Class 12th pass – but she even lied in her affidavit about her qualifications. Nor does she have the learning of a lived experience. Look at the trajectory of this woman – at 18, she leaves home for the glamour industry, to become a fashion model, a beauty queen, then gets into saas-bahuserials, which, even by the standards of the entertainment industry, is the lowest genre. It is brainless. She could not even qualify to head the National School of Drama.
