Aisha Wahab is an first-term Sen and an Afghan Muslim. So, one of the things that has always bothered me is if this was driven by some kind of Hindu-phobia or other agenda.

Obviously it can be argued that she was championing a cause dear to some of her ethic Indian constituents, but still.

I think it’d be similarly odd if a first term Hindu Sen were to champion the cause of Shia/Sunni discrimination, or the discrimination against Ahmadia Muslims or Orthodox Jews or whatever. All of which are already covered under existing laws.
