Veiled Subversion: Women in Pakistan
Naz Zarger
Abstract :
The paper aims to highlight the condition of women in Pakistan who not only are suppressed by the rigid patriarchal mind set of the males but are also falsely oppressed in the name of Islam. The women in Pakistan are poorly educated regarding their rights which Islam gives them but unfortunately are misinterpreted by the men and machinery. The stories discussed here present a poignant picture of Pakistani women
