Chief Minister Punjab Sardar Usman Buzdar in his message on the International day on the Elimination of Violence against Women has said that violence against women is a social evil and an illegal act. Violence badly disturbs qualities in women and unrest is created in the society. He said Islam has given respect and honour to women and given them complete rights. Therefore women should be given respectable place in the society by eliminating violence against them. He said the purpose of celebrating this day is to raise voice against violence against women and this day urges us all to give respectable place to women by ridding them of violence. He said a comprehensive policy has been made to end violence against women. The government of PTI is serious in redressing issues of women who are victims of violence. The dream of new Pakistan cannot be realised till complete elimination of violence against women. In new Pakistan policy regarding elimination of violence against women will be implemented. He said the scope of centres for the violence victim women will be extended to the whole of the province. We should discharge our religious, social and moral duties in a respectable manner by protecting rights of women.
