    It’s a very innovative and essential idea for a country like India where gender inequality and gender prejudice are very high. And all those feminists group that are crying hoarse are a farce. This initiative doesn’t make women any lesser. Can they ignore the fact that home makers are still not given equal importance to working men ? This party MNM president is the actor /director / producer , legendary Kamal Haasan who is know for his innovative thinking and technology in movie making too.
