Is Women, Education our priority? or we just playing with it? 

Why no Chairperson of PCSW since 2019?

Punjabi Radio Show Lok Lhar

Guests: Hifza Mazhar, Ambreen Fatima & Imran Javed Qureshi

The law regarding Status of Punjabi women was passed in 2014 when the current PM was CM Punjab. Fauzia Waqar was appointed its first Chairperson who worked for 2014-16 & 2017-19 but after it till today this seat  is vacant and it shows the preferences of PTI government of Buzdar. As the leader of PTI Imran Khan had declared that the Taliban are “breaking the chains of slavery,” than what you can expect from his hand picked government in the Punjab. 

The Punjab Commission on Status of Women (PCSW) is a human rights institution in Pakistan, which was established by the Government of Punjab in March 2014 under the PCSW Act, 2014

What is the real issue? we signed international agreements, we make laws, we get international fundings but at implementation stage we often failed many commitments. From NDMA till PCSW situation is familiar and it needs little attention.
