    PESHAWAR: President Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Women Wing Fauzia Kasuri on Tuesday asked the women to contribute to bring political change in the country by registering and casting their votes.

    Speaking at a meeting of the women’s wing here at the party secretariat, she appreciated the performance of the party’s women in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and instructed it to work for registering women as voters. She said real change could be brought if women were persuaded to go to the polling stations.

    Fauzia Kasuri said the PTI would award 20 percent of the party tickets to women workers in the next general election. She said the PTI Chairman Imran Khan would address women’s wing convention in Peshawar in May this year.

    She directed the workers to commence door-to-door campaign for conveying the PTI’s message to people. Central Vice-President Neelam Toru, Provincial President Begum Nasim Hayat and Secretary General Ayesha Naeem were also present on the occasion.

    ===========================================================

    Lots of time PTI leaders put these things out that are currently under discussion within pti. I have put a question mark in this thread because I will wait for some other PTI leader to confirm this.

    I hope this does happen though because I hate the current system of Sending women to parliament on reserved seats and this will also force other parties to put up more female candidates too.

    All tickets from Karachi and Hyderabad and Jamshoro and MirPurKhaas and Nawabshah will be awarded to women because everyone knows PTI cant win a single seat from all these places..

    I hope they do give tickets to women from all over the country, including the places where PTI supports the "local traditions" of not allowing women to vote.

    @bsobaid,

    We have to respect the local traditions, and advocate change through education, not force. Otherwise, the crocodile tears you are shedding for Baluchistan (where the issue is about giving Baluchis rights and recognition) will be proven to be just that - crocodile tears.

    When it comes to the people of FATA, drone attacks, missing person related to Tribal Areas, etc, all your crocodile tears dry up - why?!

    کیا یہ ایسا موضوع ہے جِس کو زیرِ بحث لایا جائے؟ تمام پارٹیاں کچھ ایسا ہی کرتی ہیں اور اپنی اپنی پارٹی کی خواتین کو نمائندگی دیتی ہیں۔ مُجھے اِک ساجدہ میر کا پتہ ہے جو عام کارکن لیول سے ترقی کرتی ہوئی ایم پی اے بنی ۔ اکثر یا تو مرد سیاستدانوں کی بیٹیاں، بہنیں یا پھر رشتہ دار ہوتی ہیں۔ پیپلزپارٹی میں ہی ایک اور ایم پی اے ہیں صغیرہ اسلام ۔ اُنکے بارے سُنا ہے کہ ایماندار ہیں، جاوید چودھری نے ایک کالم اس خاتون کے بارے لکھا تھا۔

    The result of this slogan will be the same as IK commitment to give 60%of the tickets to under 30.
