Six women were selected. So why did they swear the husbands?

The video that brought the storm was not much. One 12 Circle of people During a ceremony established in the bright meadows, we read solemn expressions during a new local management in the deep village corner of India.

The scandal was six of the selected for the village to be a woman. It was not six people, each represented by his husband.

After the March 3 ceremony, journalists from the National Newspaper of the Virus and India were included in the village of Faraswara in the center of the Central state of Chhattisgarh next week.

The community of six femininity entrepreneurs shocked, but it is striking. Such an informal substitute village is common in the village of India, a small leadership positions are common in places where there are long-term women.

Since 1992, the national rules for the Panchayat or the Traditional Village Assembly promised to leave one-third and in some cases for half of all the seats. The idea was to raise a descendant of a female leaders and the parliament was more suitable for women’s needs.

The spirit of this law, although the letter obeys, is often ignored. The women who should take seats in the panchayat are serving as a deputy to their husbands, along with selected men. This “cartridge husband” has a well-known time in Hindi, Pradhan Pati.

There is a long way to go to strengthen women at the national level at the national level. Only 15 percent of members of parliament are women and there are only two women in the Cabinet of 30 members of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The government has confirmed the constitutional amendment to protect all three parliamentary places for women in 2023, although it will not come into force for at least four years.

Many women politicians, not with panchayat seats, but often established male politicians rose to their national reputation.

Paraswara, the men who attended the village’s oath ceremony were defended in the absence of six women. One of the men, Bahal Ram Sahu, then three women are sick and said that for the other for the other day, he said. Other witnesses differed on the details, but all agreed with Mr. Sahu: Sometimes a husband stands for his wife and “no one thinks that there is something wrong with it.”

Over the past 15 years, Mr. Sahi’s wife Ram Bai, Paraswara’s pancharas was selected three times and served as a head. But “I’m always with him,” he said. He advised him in all matters, added and represented him when someone was off.

The husband, which served as a proxy for an official strengthened wife, has become a fund character in false conditions. “Panchayat” is the name of a popular series that a village calls a village around a village’s local boss, his wife, the chosen office.

The national government recognized the problem. In 2023, “Proxy Participation Efforts”, last month “Example Penalties” and the “exemplary penalties” against their husbands who usurped the roles of their wives.

Even Panchayat also has the role of playing TV show. Like Series, the wife, wife, and a skilled character and finds ways to carry out their legitimate prestige. Now the showman’s manufacturers work with a number of episodes with government “Who is the real boss?” After all this, the woman knows the best.

Promotion also comes from real life in other regions of India. Sheşandep Kaur Sidhu in Punjab was the head of the panchay of the village at the age of 22. Ms. Sidhu, now 29-year-old Sidhu, had a master’s degree to do something in his village.

After gaining one of the seats allocated for women, Ms. Sidhu had an eye to solve the problems related to education and sewer. Faced with resistance. “I was very young and they were like that:” What can this girl do? ” “” He said.

Ms. Sidhu wants to use the power that every woman is sitting in every panchay in India and for his friends, the power of the state. Like her, women said, “Headstrong” and “Clarify your points to your husbands.”

“He told me that politics is not considered a good thing for girls and women,” he said. Sidhu. Thus, there was a priority of a solution to a symbolic problem in the village.

For each house led by a woman, a plaque was hanged outside. These houses were known only with the names of male relatives: fathers, brothers or husbands, but were dead or separated. Now each of them shows the name of the actual woman who works.
