CHENNAI: Calling upon the women members of the Congress to draw inspiration from former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi's courage and self-confidence, Senior Congress leader P Chidambaram said that political parties should address issues concerning women and ensure greater development for them.

Speaking at a function organised by the Mahila Congress here to commemorate former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi's 108th birth anniversary, which falls on November 19, he noted that people were bound to vote in elections, but, after coming to power, political parties should discuss issues concerning women and resolve them. Women members of the Congress party would be in a position to lead the nation if they imbued themselves with the undaunted courage of the party's iconic leader, Chidambaram said.
