Today I want to start my article with disagreeing with all of those people who always saying, “Pakistan has a tradition of degrading women’s” because I think over the years this trend has been changed totally. It has turned into a tradition of accepting her abilities, knowledge and skills which can be seen in the shape of their presence in decision making corridors.
Today I am going to share some prominent and powerful Pakistani Women’s who are playing leading role in Pakistani Society and Politics.
Mohtarma Benazir Bhutto
Who can forget First Women Prime Minister of Islamic World Benazir Bhutto she was elected twice as Prime Minister of Pakistan and she was the most powerful women of Pakistan without any competition. Although she was assassinated in a terrorist attack during a public rally in Rawalpindi but she left a legacy of a huge followers and people who admire her political career and recent PPP government was not able to rule Pakistan right now.
Mrs. Asma Jahangir
Former President of Supreme Court Bar and one of the Leading Layer and Human Right Activist in Pakistan’s History, Asma Jahangir is one of the most powerful women in power corridors of Pakistani Politics. She is also leading Civil Society’s different organizations.
Right now she is enjoying Media’s Lime Light with full gloom due to playing a key role as defender of Mr. Hussain Haqqani who is facing massive pressure due to Memo Scandal case and has been removed from his position of Ambassador to USA.
She was an active protestor during Dictator Gen. Parvez Musharraf and was detained several times in prison because of his human rights movements.
Mrs. Fahmida Mirza
Fahmida Mirza is Speaker of Pakistan National Assembly right now and we can imagine how powerful women she is right now who have to powers to silence any popular leader of the country. She is a regular General Elected Member of National Assembly.
Ms. Hina Rabbani Khar
Our famous and beautiful Foreign Minister and she always remain in the lime light due to his political and fashion moves but she is not only a charming lady but she is very dedicated and hard working also. She is one of the most active politicians in last decade and serves on several key posts. Young Pakistani girls admire her and look her as a role model not only to get success but learn fashion tips as well.
Ms. Kashmala Tariq
Kashmala Tariq is also a very beautiful and charming Political figure of Pakistan who has a very sharp and positive political mind. She is elected 2
nd time Member of Parliament. She is very active on local public issues and always raises her voice in people of Pakistan support. She is right in opposition and we have to yet see her progress as Federal Minister.
I must admit, “Her beauty catches everyone towards her without any age restrictions. Some gossips were also circulated some times but still there is no evidence regarding these events which was attached with her.
She came in lime light when Parvez Musharraf was in power and he approved women empowerment bill. We have witnessed some beautiful faces after this bill in Parliament. I think she has very powerful and bright future in coming years.
Mrs. Sherry Rehman
Sherry Rehman is one of the all time seasonal political figure of Pakistan. She has served on several key posts during PPP’s all recent governments and right now she has the portfolio of
Ambassador of Pakistan in United Stats.
I am a great admirer of her political career and her school of thought and also the charm she has in her personality.
Sherry Rehman is one of the key figures in our recent political history and has tremendous achievements in life.
There are plenty of other political women figures are in our National Assembly and I love to share about them as well, which I will share in my next episode.
