Aurat March since 2018

Activists and NGOs began organising “Aurat March” in 2018 to celebrate the International Women’s Day.

But some banners, posters and slogans in the Aurat March led to the controversy last year.

However, they named that “Hum Aurtain” in Karachi.

Last year, it extended to other cities, including Lahore, Multan, Faisalabad, Larkana and Hyderabad.

Meanwhile, President Arif Alvi and Prime Minister Imran Khan reiterated their support for the day.

PM Khan said it is indeed encouraging to see that our women are proving their mettle in every walk of life.

He hailed women achieving excellence in their respective fields at national and international level.
