I was researching for major political parties around the world, and could not resist taking a snap shot of India's major political parties - by the number of seats in the Parliament. There 'were' several other major parties that got wiped out in the BJP sweep across India, which are not included.
The website foundation for pluralism is being converted to Center for Pluralism, it will be about pluralism in politics, religion, society, cuisines, costumes.... Pluralism is respecting the otherness of others.
One of the few reasons I took the snap is because - 4 major parties of India have 3 women leaders, which we are proud of. However, we need to pass strong laws to zero in on rapists and women harassers, and work on educating our new generation to believe, feel and act equal with women folks.
