Miss World 1996 story behind the protests vs MWO

Read this article: (most of the parts covered the protests against Miss World 1996 pageant in India especially one of the protesters committed suicide thru self-immolation)

I'm shocked that despite India entered the golden age of pageantry with Sushmita Sen and Aishwarya Rai's win at Miss Universe & Miss World 1994 respectively that most of the Indians are not taking these pageants so seriously. I felt either these people lacked awareness about the pageants or being "manipulated" by several politicians by using the "anti-pageant sentiments" to gain political power?

Do you think hosting Miss World 1996 in India gained more awareness about beauty pageants from the ordinary Indians that gained 4 more Miss World and 1 more Miss Universe crowns?
