JI undecided about women's participation in anti-govt rally
The Jammat-e-Islami (JI) is still unsure about whether its women members will participate in an anti-Musharraf campaign scheduled to start during Ramzan, sources told Daily Times on Monday. JI's women wing is an organised political platform for Pakistani women and provides technical and management training to women. About 16,000 women participated in the JI annual congregation held at Azakhel Park in Nowshera from October 1 to 3. According to sources, some JI provincial leaders are influencing the leadership to allow women to participate in the Muthida Majlis-e-Amal (MMA) anti government rally because they think the party will be unable to motivate the public without them.Posted by: Fred 2004-10-26 |
