Minister for Law and Justice Senator Azam Nazir Tarar while addressing the the seminar, "Reclaiming the Space: Reading the Constitution from Women's Perspective" co organized by Ministry of Law and Justice and Women Parliamentary Cacus ( WPC) said that I stand here not just as representative of the government but also as a proponent of progress, equality and justice for all. The constitution of Pakistan is a beacon of hope, a guiding force that lays the foundation for our nation’s values and principles it is essential that we view it through a diverse lens that encapsulates the struggles and aspirations of all the members of the society specifically of the women. When we speak of reading the constitution from women's perspective we aim to enhance our understanding and ensure that all individuals are treated equally under the law. Gender based discrimination still exists in various forms withing our society and it is more visible in remote areas. we have abundance of laws for the protection of the rights of women but the issue lies in the implementation of those laws. Let us all pledge to work together to strengthen the implementation mechanism and to enhance the parliamentary oversight in this regard. First there should be examination of the situation and then an implementation and monitoring plan should be devised in cooperation with all the stakeholders.
