Women’s Action Forum – Karachi: A Women’s Manifesto for General Election 2018
Women’s Action Forum recognizes the Pakistani State’s irrevocable responsibility for upholding its citizens’ fundamental rights to life, liberty, security and dignity as outlined in Article 9 of the Constitution of Pakistan:
“No person shall be deprived of life or liberty, save in accordance with law.”
WAF advocates for a secular and pluralistic state which observes the separation of religion from laws and public policies and administers the well-being and protects the equal rights of all citizens, without any discrimination on the basis of gender, class or religious belief. Further WAF calls on all institutions to govern without any use and therefore, exploitation, of religion.
