For a while now, Telangana Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao has been facing criticism for keeping women out of his Cabinet. This time too, the Cabinet is devoid of any women representation. Moreover, a Cabinet minister’s comments that “women belong in home” has made it worse.
Amid such circumstances, Nizamabad MP and Chief Minister’s daughter K. Kavitha came under attack for being the only “woman” from KCR’s family to have political representation. However, when questioned about the lack of women representation in KCR’s Cabinet, she said that she “cannot change her father’s mind or influence him.”
During a summit, she said that “no political party gives proper representation for women. “Whether it is the TRS or the Congress or any other parties. There is no equal space for women in politics. Unfortunately, in TRS, there are only 4 women of the total 85 plus MLAs from the party,” she rued, adding that women representation in politics should be mandated.
“I’m a junior member of the party,” So, influencing a senior leader, such as my father who has been in politics for over 30 years won’t work,” she believes. However, several people wondered about how Kavitha could make such comments as she is in a an influential position and as a public representative should make efforts to ensure ample women representation, rather than making statements that she cannot do anything in her position.
