The Eleventh Commandment
info_icon

Some join politics for public welfare, some for prestige and some to fulfill divine providence. Nagaland바카라™s M.M. Thromwa Konyak and Mizoram바카라™s Lalthlamuani ascribed their decision to contest elections to 바카라œGod바카라™s calling바카라. Konyak says when Nagas converted to Christianity, they vowed to dispatch 10,000 missionaries across the globe to disseminate god's message. After all these years, he has taken up the mantle to keep his forefathers바카라™ word. Konyak also wants to increase salaries of the clergy and incr­ease road connectivity바카라”presumably so that missionaries can move around with ease. Lalthlamuani, a Jew and the first woman ever to contest Lok Sabha elections in Mizoram, says Jews settled in the state belong to one of the 바카라˜lost tribes of Israel바카라™ and her candidature will allow her to highlight their issues. But will their religiosity be able to ­attract votes or will it be a heavy cross to bear?
