U’Khand poll: BJP female workers were injured by the decision to drop Mahila Morcha’s head from the candidate list

Dehradun: BJP jumped surprisingly when it dropped Pradesh President Mahila Morcha Ritu Khanduri from the party’s first candidate list for the Uttarakhand assembly poll but gave a ticket to the former Congress colleague Sarita Arya who had defected the Safron party recently.
Khanduri, who also sat Mla from Yamkeshwar, was very lost from the first list of the candidates who were announced earlier this week.
Renu Bisk was lowered from the chair, not Khanduri.
However, the former president of Pradesh Mahila Arya Congress, who has stopped its barring just a few days before the list was announced, got a ticket from Nainital – his seat wanted a contest.
The decision appeared as a surprise for many besides being MLA sitting and office carrier, Khanduri, who was the BJP veteran daughter and former Main Minister Bhuvan Chandra Khanduri, was rejected by the defense of the Congress.
Injured by a decision, female party workers led by Pradesh BJP Mahila Morcha General Secretary Anu Kakkar met the Secretary General of the organization of the BJP State Unit Ajey Kumar and asked him to reconsider the decision.
When asked about this, Khanduri said BJP had given a ticket to six candidates for women and he hoped to see his name on the list of the two parties.
Khanduri said the election politics was a “male dominated society” but the problem was not unique to India and anywhere in the world.
It’s not only in politics but in various fields where despite being able to as a man, women must work harder, he said.
“We struggle for our rights.
The situation has increased a little over the past few years.
This will improve further in the future,” Khanduri said.
The Women Folk, who plays a major role in the movement that leads to the creation of Uttarakhand, is always ignored in giving them adequate representation in the election politics, he said.
BJP in the first list of 59 candidates has provided a ticket to six women, namely 10 percent of the total number of candidates.
Three women now MLA does not display in the first list.
Apart from Khanduri, Gangolaihat Mla Meena Gangola and the legislator Tharali Munni Devi Shah was also dropped.
Congress was also in the first list of 53 candidates only gave tickets to three women which were slightly more than five percent of the total number of candidates.
It combines the Secretary General of Congress Priyanka Gandhi Vadra to provide a 40 percent ticket to women at Uttar Pradesh.
A leader of the Pradesh Congress Committee said that the party only deployed a candidate who was able to win in Uttarakhand.
The number of women getting tickets in consecutive assembly polls in Uttarakhand remains limited to 10-15 percent.
