Abstract:
Gender inequality exists in Pakistan as a phenomenon that does not allow women equality of opportunity in the public and private sphere and also keeps women in very subjugated roles within the public and in private relationships. These factors can affect women’s access to education, employment, to career advancement and to their possibilities of holding positions of political power and roles of social and cultural esteem. Although gender equality may have progressed somewhat in the modern world but it is still an issue of great urgency in other parts of the world as well as in Pakistan, that i

The domain of liberal political theory has aptly dealt the question of liberty in its negative and positive formulations. However, the vulnerability to violence cannot merely be reduced to the concept of negative liberty as ‘absence of restrain or opportunity’. Moreover, the multitudinal vulnerability of women in Pakistan to violence cannot be merely understood within the framework of Liberalism specially Berlin’s two concepts of freedom. The status of women in Pakistan is very complex due to historical, religious, cultural, social, economic, and political influences.

Women's issues in Pakistani politics continue to be a pressing concern, reflecting the complex challenges faced by women in the country's political landscape.

Suicidal behavior is an understudied subject in Pakistan. A variety of social, legal, and religious factors make reporting and data collection on suicide and nonfatal suicidal behavior difficult. To study the problem, a retrospective case‐note analysis was carried out in which the sociodemographic and clinical characteristics of 262 female and 185 male suicidal individuals admitted to a university hospital in Karachi, Pakistan, are compared.
