KARACHI: There is the need to portray women in media equally and exclusively at par with men so that they can play their due role in national development. Electronic media direly needs to train its anchors and reporting staff so that they can highlight women’s issues positively and respectfully. Amin Yousuf, a PFUJ leader, said that women organizations should work jointly for women protection and rights instead of working separately. Yousuf said that it was observed since March 1 to 12 that separate programs of women organizations were held, which was not a good omen. He urged media organizations to train their staff and devise a gender policy so that women could come forward and play their role exclusively.
