Yes I agree.

Sonia is supporting womens reservation and for that she is prefering a women speaker.

It should be merit not gender to be considered for the post.

Wht merit u expect ? Meira is former IFS officer and has taken up crucial assignments. Do u think she is not capable to take up speaker post ? You want balayogi type speaker?

Somanth is a much better speaker.

It is made amply clear by sonia that she wants woman as speaker.

This is exaclty the bias. he is feminist.

You mean female candidate should be given higher post because of her gender?

why do you keep shouting to stop women reservation? Men created this problem. You illtreated them, sexually harrased them, treated as slaves all these years. Pay for it . How many brides were burnts for dowry? how many girl babies killed? education denied because of sex -- what else you expect the Govt to do ? You dont want to give 33% for 48 to 51% of population? How do you make them equalls? You cant keep enjoying always know- some time we have to pay for what we did for generations. Lay down and enjoy it - dont scream!

discrimination against men.
1. women reservation
2. dv
3. 498A
4. sexual harassment bill
5. seats reserved in trains and busses.
6. less income tax.

Do men have gutts to speak out or slaves of their girlfriends.

Casteism and Reservations will prevail in India **till** 85% of all registered marriages are inter-caste.
Till then, Resistance is Futile.

Rediff has once again not checked the facts.

She spells her name as Meira Kumar and not Meera Kumar.

World over people take undue care not to misspell names. Uhh except Rediff.

This shows your stature in the journalistic world. Probably, that's why no one take you as seriously compared to say Reuters, Timesonline, etc. etc.
