Chief Minister Punjab Sardar Usman Buzdar has said that respect and honour of women was an integral part of socio-cultural and religious norms of the Pakistani society adding that the West can’t imagine the abundance of rights enjoyed by women in Islam.
In his message, the CM maintained that Almighty Allah has given tremendous respect and honour to the women in their different roles as mother, daughter or sister. It is sanguine that the Pakistani woman is talented, hard-working and has proved her mettle in different spheres of life.
Her role is praiseworthy and the dream of development could not be materialized without empowering the women community, he added.
The CM regretted that no positive step was adopted by the previous governments to include women in the development process and asserted that the incumbent government was committed to providing opportunities for women’s development.
The PTI-led government has provided ample opportunities to women to move forward as it is a beneficial investment to develop an enlightened society by providing resources for women’s empowerment, he said.
The CM pointed out that the women quota in government jobs has been increased from 5% to 15% along with further age relaxation of three years.
This day demands that every possible step should be taken to help include women in a development process along with their encouragement to excel in life, the CM concluded.
Meanwhile, Chief Minister Punjab Sardar Usman Buzdar has said that those who sow the seeds of hypocrisy would have to untie the knots with their teeth.
In a statement issued on Tuesday, the CM remarked that there would be enough time for politics in future as agitational politics is detrimental to national unity now.
The government would firmly deal with the no-confidence stunt, he commented.
Those who dream during the day and conspire at night always fail, he argued.
On one side, there is a bunch of corrupt politicians and on the other side; there is a visionary and fearless leader like PM Imran Khan who could take Pakistan forward.
The government would continue to compete with the corrupt mafia, he concluded.
