These eight women came from many different backgrounds, but they all had big dreams. The path to power meant facing obstacles and their biggest fears.
Comment: Thanks a lot for the well elucidated artices,illustrating how women have come to the top. I am sure this will definately be an encouraging article which will go a long way in making we "women" realizt that we are indeed "Shakti"...meaning power...asis depicted by the great epics of Indian sprituality.
Comment: Women from all over the world face same challenges. As long as we will not have a self -esteem problem
we can accomplish at least twice as men do. Be it politics, business or social domaines...Thank you
Newsweek for introducing new role models. Leyla Alaton G??nyeli from ??stanbul-Turkey.
Comment: My million thanks to Newsweek magazine and the journalists who covered this story for putting Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh, Ms Mayawati among the top 8 women leaders in world. These laurels from a reputed magazine like Newsweek are rightly deserved by Mayawati. Such a highly valued recognition would have never come from the Indian media which is totally controlled by the forces of bramhnical social order. The Indian media is so utterly biased and partisan that it makes even an ordinary person from amongst the so called "upper caste" look like a big hero by repeatedly portraying him in media. On the other hand the big heroes from the Bahujan Samaj ( majority lower castes and converted minorities) who have made huge contributions in nation building are totally ignored by this same partisan Indiam media. Hats off to Newsweek !
