Afghan women on the move
THIS refers to the Opinion page article, “A precarious crossroads for Afghan women.” It was a relief to read that Afghan women are not living in miserable conditions as they have for decades. Not only can they work now, but they also have 28 percent reservation in the country’s parliament. If that reservation is fully utilised by the women of the country, they can surely bring about a lot more changes.

One of the most important areas which needs attention is relief for women who are punished for socalled ‘moral crimes’.
