Rural women demand equal rights

Islamabad: Rural Women on Sunday urged the authorities concerned to provide them equal rights and also set up any regulatory body which could address the issues of rural skilled women.

These poor skilled women sent their skilled work to urban markets to earn something for their families but due to absence of a regulatory system they had to face discrimination and low wages despite heavy work load.

Unfortunately, owners of shopping centres displayed their beautiful handmade embroideries, jewellery etc. and collected huge money but these skilled women received meagre amount of their work, Aima Alam, a head of civil society organization said. Another rural woman Rubina Bibi said, “The shopkeepers were not giving sufficient amount as their work item worth.”
