NDTV
"The male-dominated political world conspires to treat you in such a manner as to break you," S Chandira Priyanga told NDTV
Puducherry's lone woman legislator, S Chandira Priyanga, resigned as a minister from the AINRC-BJP government alleging gender and caste-based discrimination.
Explaining her decision, the 34-year-old said that the 'male-dominated' political world does not let women flourish.
"Women are treated only as women. You may be educated, even come from a privileged background but the male-dominated political world conspires to treat you in such a manner as to break you. You do not get respect even if you are capable and doing your job well," Ms Priyanga told NDTV.
