Pakistan Press Foundation

While addressing the ceremony ,Fidous Ashiq Awan paid tribute to the women journalists working at different positions in the media industry and said that their struggle will help build an informed society. “The role of women journalists is like ‘jihad’ with a pen, as it influences the mind. It is, however, regrettable that society has often failed to provide an environment conducive to the women in their respective fields. I would pay tributes to all such working women who not only manage their family life but also work in the society for shouldering their family resources,” she added.

The Special Assistant said the society should also change its approach and behavior towards working women, as we are living in a male-dominated society where women are usually considered weak and frail. “I have also faced countless challenges, difficulties and societal impassiveness for the last 20 years, but I believe that brave and courageous women can make it into their destinations because they are determined and can face the challenges,” she added.
