Erm..... What Is Your Reflection On This Story? Help Me Pls!! Award: 10pts!!?

You might want to reflect on the fact that India which has always had a caste system now seems to be moving away from that at least in regards to its elected officials. The fact that a female who is of low caste won is encouraging. India has always been hard on its women and individuals who did not come from a high caste background. The candidate herself seems to have acknowledged "inclusiveness" in her campaign since she went after the upper caste and Muslim vote. Also, India now has a system more like the US...India will be ruled by a single party instead of a coalition. Perhaps Indian society is becoming more Western in its thinking.
