She says, I am not a career politician, but I have a huge experience in all aspects of life having worked in different scenario. I now want to use this vast experience to help society and underprivileged people. I am especially, passionate about women’s issues, and do wonder sometimes why are women underrepresented. Why are there not enough women in our parliament to raise their voices for women’s issues like domestic violence and inequality?
