The issue of women empowerment has been a central one to all parties and a prominent part of the manifesto and campaigns. The issue of women empowerment has been a central one to all parties and a prominent part of the manifesto and campaigns. While most parties are paying lip service and one observes a difference in the spoken word and actions, very few sincere and kind hearted candidates have a true closeness to the cause. Rizwan Arshad the young congressman fighting his first lok sabha election from Bangalore Central Constituency is an ideal example of the empathy and understanding developed for the cause of women. His clear stand in support of women issues has been well demonstrated. While opposition views porn at legislature in session, he has been protesting on streets making his stand clear on unacceptable behavior and condemning them unequivocally. He has been responsible for many candle light protest march against oppression of women. He has gained many women supporters for not just his political activism to seek their rights but by his very conduct with them gaining him huge following, trust and respect amongst women of all cadre. The opposition has many loopholes to fill in what they suggest and what they do. Many known personalities of the BJP party have been charged with heinous crimes like RAPE. The anger in women especially the young college goer has reached a level of intolerance and as a youth congress president and emerging national leader his support and views are in line with a far sighted policy of gender equality, equal rights in property, safety and mobility of women in the city and above all in empowering women to be responsible and contributing individuals in a society
