Caretaker Federal Minister for Human Rights Khalil George on Friday said that Balochistan is the first province to pass the high number of legislation for the rights of women and has the least number of reported cases regarding violence against women.

Addressing a seminar titled ‘Empower HER: Advocating for Women’s Rights and Combating Gender Base Violence’ organized by the Ministry of Human Rights here, he said that development and prosperity are possible only with the equal rights of women and non-gender violence in society. Khalil George said that he has contacted Chief Ministers to establish a Human Rights Department in his respective province. The minister said that the government has been working to empower women and to ensure opportunities for them in every sector of the country. He said the role of women in the country’s development is vital and no society can progress without the participation of women.—APP
