The Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) Vice President Maryam Nawaz said people were looking towards us for relief as the economy of the country had crumbled and unemployment had disrupted the system of domestic life.
“Women must play a historic role in the decisive phase for the improvement, development and prosperity of the country,” said the PML-N vice president during a meeting with women parliamentarians and officials of the party on Friday.
On the special invitation, the meeting was also attended by the wives of lawmakers of National and provincial assemblies associated with the party.
Maryam expressed confidence that women would play crucial part in political battle, prove they were “two steps ahead of men” and enhance their role in decision making and strategic planning.
The meeting discussed in detail the Pakistan Democratic Movement’s (PDM) upcoming public gathering scheduled to be held on December 13 in Lahore. Inviting the women to fully participate in the rally, the PML-N leader said women would play a major role in the success of the movement against the government.
She maintained the spirit of women was firm and herald of success in the accomplishment of PDM’s aims as the female workers and leaders were a valuable asset of the party.
“Begum Kulsoom Nawaz played a historic role in Pakistan's politics during the era of dictatorship. We will move forward with the spirit of the Mother of Nation Fatima Jinnah and Begum Nawaz,” said the PML-N leader, while highlighting the contribution of women leaders.
Regarding the Lahore public gathering of PDM, Nawaz Sharif directed Maryam to activate student unions, including Muslim Student Federation (MSF), Youth Wing and Sher Jawan Force, along with political activists of the party. He further instructed the vice president that the student unions should be given the task of active role in the PDM rally.
Following the directives, Maryam invited the youth of MSF and Sher Jawan Force to the social media convention of the party scheduled to be held on Sunday (tomorrow). The youth wing would be responsible to look after the security of the rally.
Besides, she directed Rana Sanaullah and Rana Arshad to mobilize the students and asked Arshad to report her on a daily basis.
