PMLN leaders disgraceful remarks against Pakistani women represent only the class and families they belong to

ISLAMABAD - Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) leaders Rana Sanaullah and Abid Sher Ali disgraceful remarks about the women in Pakistan represents the class and families they belong to where there is no respect for the mothers, sisters and daughters.

The disgraceful statements targeted women who participated in the PTI rally and Member National Assembly (MNA) Shireen Mazari. Where Sanaullah raised ‘concerns’ over the ‘character’ of PTI’s women supporters, Ali’s tirade elaborated the scuffle between him and MNA Murad Saeed during the parliament’s budget session on April 27.

Unsurprisingly, the comments received severe backlash from all quarters. Taking to micro-blogging site Twitter, Imran Khan expressed his disgust and strongly condemned the filthy language used by Sanaullah and Ali against PTI women supporters.

“In the past 30 years, these people have always disrespected women which is against our religion & culture. I want to thank our women for coming out in such huge numbers!”

MNA Mazari also condemned the language, adding that PTI could respond in kind about PML-N women supporter “but will not stoop” to their level.

Seasoned politician Shah Mehmood Qureshi also condemned the comments.

PPP leader and lawyer Aitzaz Ahsan pointed out that Benazir Bhutto had “kicked out” Sanaullah after he passed derogatory remarks against Maryam Nawaz.

Muttahida Qaumi Movement-Pakistan (MQM-P) leader Syed Ali Raza Abidi termed the statements “unacceptable and disgusting”.
