All the same, I applaud Sonia Gandhi for her commitment to appointing a woman to this important position. In a country full of contradictory attitudes toward women – ranging from the worship of the powerful goddess Durga to the killing of innocent young brides – such gestures can be very powerful.
尽管如此，我赞赏索尼亚·甘地致力于任命一名妇女担任这一重要职务。印度充满了对妇女的矛盾态度，从对女神的崇拜到杀害无辜的年轻新娘。这样的姿态是非常有力的。
