Thatâs why Vaid, who will turn 18 this April, doesnât plan to vote for Mayawati, the self-proclaimed leader of her people, in the coming Lok Sabha elections. âIâm put off by her way of dressing and especially the way she talks,â Vaid says. âMayawati just doesnât have it.â
Instead she is most likely to cast the first vote of her life to Rahul Gandhi. âWhen you look at him, you think he can do something for young people like us,â she observes, âwhile if Mayawati becomes the prime minister, we would most likely have Delhi invaded by cows and buffaloes from the countryside.â
There is another reason why Mayawati must count out Vaid from her scheme of things. âMayawati just talks Dalit, Dalit, Dalit and that reduces us to being just that,â she says, âbut hello, we are also Hindus, we are also Indians.â
