Inspired by the values of Mahatma Gandhi, she firmly believes in social justice and human dignity. For her, politics is a service to people. Her political work is guided by a vision that places people at the centre of decisionmaking, with the goal of building a more just, inclusive society founded on strong solidarity, and ensuring that no one is left behind.
