Gender in equality is the cover name of a book where there
are written sad stories of women sufferings .This heart striking miserable
description start with the social suppression against them by keeping
illiterate, gets embittered by treating them with disrespect ,goes worse with
making the deprived of medical treatment, WOMEN are foundation of a home and
pillar of society .unfortunately men have failed to change their attitude
towards women .Thus ,gender equality is a myth because women are not equal to
men in Pakistan.
Gender in equality is basically the discrimination between men and women .The
United Nations declaration of human rights (UNDHR) under the article two (2)
assets that everyone is entitled to all rights and freedom without distinction
of any kind such as race, color, sex, language religion gender and national and
social origin.
Similarly, the concept of gender equality in Pakistan is illiterate. In 17th
goals of sustainable development provide by the UN, gender equality is the 5th
goal to be achieved by 2030. Unfortunately. Pakistan is not on the path of
achieving the goal because Pakistan ranks 151 out of 153. Thus, after the 73
years of independence. Women still suffer and gender equality remains myth here.
Additionally, the share in inheritance is not given to women to which they are
entitled the teachings of Islam. In this male dominant society, it is difficult
for a women to getter share in property .ALLAH has secured the inheritance
rights of women in the SURAH-NISA. “Women inherits only half of the men”.
Concluding, it is necessary to empower women or will automatically empower the
nation, blood has been spilled and tears –shared in order to achieve gender
equality .In a nutshell ,the overall pictures seems increasingly black ..
Someone has right said “of the rights that bleeding grow, the Here the most
bruised is women”.Hence it is undebatable that gender equality is myth in
Pakistan.
