Topic: Aurat March, the hot topic in town

 News Review by: Uswah E Fatima





Few days ago, Sir Khalil u Rehman Qamar insulted Madam Marvi in a talk show. Marvi abuses on Twitter. Another Aurat march on Women’s Day, a lot of misconceptions and many misinterpretations. If we try to sum up the last week in Pakistan then it would not be wrong to say it was one heck of a battle between feminists and anti-feminists, yet we all fail to understand so many things. None of us can truly declare the idea of wrong and right, can we?



Objectives of the feminist movement

If you look at the main objectives of the feminist movement or the Aurat March phenomenon, then you would realize that they are not that wrong. And then came to the busters, the placards, so some women thought that getting the right to sit the way you want is more important than getting rights of inheritance, that’s where the feud somehow begins. They will surely be unaware of the concepts of culture and civilization, and I won’t lie I have been of the same group. Asking a western person to wear an eastern dress every day is pretty similar to what many women have started fighting for.
It is never a bad move when a group of people stand up to get their rights of liberation, but if those people stand up to challenge the cultural norms of a centuries-old society then things get fishy. People would ask themselves if this is some kind of foreign agenda or a real feminist movement.
This is a fight for freedom and respect or just merely a fight causing chaos.



Dear Humans,

No one is asking anyone, not to follow the feminist movement or not to go to the Aurat March, but before doing any action you need to be clear about what you want and what are you standing for?
Are you just being another follower of the crowd or do you actually stand for something substantial?
Dear humans, men or women, you matter, so do your choices, be clear about them and Stand for what really feels right to the heart, not to the world and its people because they change their minds the moment you leave.

Drama Serial: Kahin Deep Jalay Review by: Qursam Fatima  Novel based plays are always more exciting to watch. Viewers become more judgemental while watching such plays.

Drama: Jo Tu Chahay Review by: Qursam Fatima  Verily, His Command, when He intends a thing, is only that He says to it, “Be!” – and it is! (36:82) Some plays are made on the social side and some highlight the reformation. Some stories are written romantically, while in some stories the religious aspect is written. Religious and spiritual aspects are rarely highlighted in our drama industry. Dramas that are not only seen but also understood are nothing short of a blessing. Those writers are in fact blessing who pen down such unusual topics. Jo Tu Chahay is also one such drama whose story is simple yet deep. It is beautifully written by Alif Allah aur Insan acclaimed writer Qaisera Hayat and directed by very talented Ilyas Kashmiri under the banner of MD Productions . This serial is for viewers of all ages as it revolves around a family. The focal point of this serial is quranic verse "Kun Faya Kun". This story revolves around an orphan and a poor girl who is wai...

|News Review by Quratulain| |Student Union|

Student Union By: Quratulain Here are my two cents on student unions. Why not? Usually two reasons are given: Ø   It’s a distraction. Ø   And these Unions are violent. So here is the impact of no unions. Politics is a distraction for students. They should focus on study alone, it’s not the business of workers, and they should work day to day and never learn how to speak for their rights. So here is what happens. Politics becomes the slang. The one and only place from where future leaders come is “Jati Umra and Bhutto house.” Student unions are a way to nurture future leadership. About the violence part, in public universities political parties have their own groups. They are Operating freely. Do they become violent? Yes. Have you seen any effort to abolish their hold from institution? No. Because, it’s not about violence, it’s about threat they pose to status quo. In Pakistan, politics is the privilege of the super privileged. You want to be a y...
