Gender-based reforms

Sir: Pakistan has always undergone some kind of reform(s) whenever a government has changed. Mostly these reforms are focused towards the economy or energy productivity.

From nationalisation to privatisation and from rental power plants to independent power plants, Pakistan has experienced quite a lot of changes. But what has not been reformed in Pakistan is the gender-based macro level reforms. Such reforms simply refer to those policies that should encompass women while formulating other policies so that the role of women is highlighted and the governmental policies are such that provide a better platform for the women of this country.
