A quiet revolution in the offing?
Benazir Bhutto was perhaps the most high profile representation of the political Pakistani woman. Today, Pakistani girls are beginning to reassert themselves in the political arena. We’ve been getting reports from around the country that seem to suggest that Pakistani girls are participating in the country’s political scene in a big way.
Like Benazir Bhutto, the young females of Pakistan are keen on making their mark felt on the political arena.
Certain female members have joined the main political parties including the Pakistan Peoples Party and the Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz Group. Defecting from the PMLQ, some female members have also joined the PPPP.
Student groups are also active in promoting democracy. Some say this is a quiet female revolution in the making.
