PESHAWAR, July 7: The provincial president of the Pakistan Muslim League(QA), Salim Saifullah Khan, has said that the inhuman incidents like molestation of the innocent woman in Multan under Panchayat decision would have not occurred if the women were given due rights in the society.

He was talking to a delegation of the PML women’s wing led by its provincial organizer Nighat Orakzai at the PML provincial secretariat, Peshawar, the other day. Salim Saifullah Khan said that today the western world was at its peak of progress and prosperity owing to the participation of women in every sphere of life and their presence in the national mainstream.—PPI
