Why I will never enter politics Many of you in your comments on my posts on fb have asked me to enter politics, but I have always said that I am not cut out for it. Let me now explain. I have never been a popularity seeker. I do not want to please you, and I do not want your votes. I want to see India prosperous, and for that reason I hate feudal ideas and practices, since they are the greatest obstacles to modernization and progress, and I hate injustice to anyone, which was inculcated into me at a very early age by my teacher, the great French thinker Rousseau. For this reason I hate the feudal and backward customs and practices among both Hindus and Muslims---the caste system among Hindus ( see my article on the caste system on my blog justicekatju.blogspot.in ) which is still a curse on the Indian people,, and oral talaq among Muslims ( see my article Abolish this Unjust Muslim Personal Law on my blog ) which keeps a damocles sword hanging over every Muslim wife. That is why I will never enter politics, because in politics one has to pander and truckle to caste and religious sentiments and vote banks, which i find disgusting. If I pander and cater to them, I will be betraying all the principles which I have believed in and fought for all my life.
