LHC turns down plea seeking to stop Aurat March 2024
On Monday, the Lahore High Court (LHC) turned down a plea seeking to stop this year’s Aurat March.
LHc termed the petition “inadmissible” which was filed against the 2024 Aurat March event, set to take place on March 8 (Friday) this week and later dismissed it.
LHC’s Justice Shahid Karim announced the decision which was reserved earlier.
A citizen named Azam Butt, in his filed plea, had made Lahore Deputy Commissioner (DC) Rafia Hyder and others party.
“Aurat March cards and banners are not acceptable in an Islamic society,” the petitioner urged, requesting the LHC to issue an order to stop the Aurat March this year.
In Pakistan, women have been organising large public demonstrations marking International Women’s Day, as Aurat March, since 2018.
For this year the Women’s Day theme is “Siyasat, Muzahamat aur Azadi” (Politics, resistance, and independence), which focuses on tackling electoral politics head-on and reimagining a version of political participation where oppressed groups and communities on the margin take centre stage.
