Every one knows and has heard about Mukhtar Mai being an imminent character and representation of women all over Paksitan. Every one know the tragedy that was besought upon her but the question is even if we feel sorry for her do we support her as an embassodor for women rights or not?
She gained alot of fame considering how she stood up courageously for her rights even thought she belonged to a very conservative city of Multan. She went aginst her traditions to point out how her human rights were violated. this was a first in Pakistan and we commend her.
Her past is now known all around the world and also found on the internet. May it b her recent wedding or her stride in to education. Along with fame she also had to suffer alot of harrasment at the hands of the Pakistan government. She is in th lime light and it is not good presently as her present situation is not well known. From where we see she stands alone as demand from the public will mobilise the governemtn to take action against her.
It is unfortunate to address that the Multan Power comapny was accused of stealing electricity and hence the power supply was cut from the whole town. This is also where Mukhtara Mai reseides. the School and shelter home inaugerated by her in her honor still dont recieve any electricity even in the blistering heat when the power was apparently restored every where. What kind of a discrimination is this? she is the one who was gan raped and now she doesnt even have the right to live the rest of her life in peace?
Because of this power cut her human right activities were hindered and little boys and girls were deprived of thier born right to be educated. Why cant any one see and raise a voice aginst this unfairness? Her rape case is still in the Supreme Court whiel she continues to be an activist.
This is also a known fact how she is continously being harrased by governmnet officials. Jatoi told her to take back the case or reach a negotiation but on her rejectiona public address was given by him stating how she is a liar and a fraud and all her attackers are innocent.
This so called western agena holder is in danger and hasnt been fulfilling her duties at her best since then. Her life is in danger. Her colleagues continue on with the work in darkness. This is not fair. Paksitan owes her a life and a meaning to live. Her aim is to do nothing but good for the country and we should give it to her. Sine 2002 her commitment is not up to excellence due to the officials of this very own country. This harrasment needs to end because as an NGO her work is needed here. Rights need to be demanded and serious action needs to be taken.

will appreciate your views.
ReplyDeletewell we all agree to the fact that what happened with her was not right. she never deserved anything of that sort but the amount of attention she has gained out of this is not questionable. she has used most this attention to get monetary benefits from all kinds of women right activists.
ReplyDeleteeven though she raised her voice she only got more humiliation and suffering.unfortunately in pakistan the legal system is still in a bad state...and woman rights is a far far cry. it is sad.
ReplyDeleteThe so called "Westernization" that everyone in Pakistan condemns and shakes their finger at would probably teach the country and the government a good lesson or two. Had this sort of thing happened anywhere in the Western world, human rights activists would be all over the place rather than one individual fighting. When will these double standards of our society end? The men who gang raped her are being called innocent and she is being called a liar. No adequate investigations have been done on this. She is shouting out to the world, getting only a few listeners. In fact, they have shown to be even more low-character and immoral by shutting down power supply in specifically her school and her shelter home. Unlike most others in Pakistan, she didn't only say words, she actually took action to help towards education and building of our society, and even THAT was hindered by our ridiculous governments. This corruption has no limits and has no end. Keep fighting Mukhtara Mai.

We all stand on a pedastal and conveniantly judge a public figure. None of us know Mai. Who she is aand what does she feel. We cant even begin to imagine what she has gone through. Evry one is keen on judging but no one is active enough to get to the bottom of it and find the truth. maybe she is an attention seeker or maybe she is only being portrayed that way, we will never know unless we stop mouthing off and explore ourselves!
ReplyDeletekeep up the gud w0rk !
