Womans rule in Pakistan is vicious: Sindh Chief Minister

The Chief Minister of Sindh, Arbab Ghulam Rahim, has said that a womans rule was vicious, and people should avoid it.

Lahore, Aug 27 : The Chief Minister of Sindh, Arbab Ghulam Rahim, has said that a woman's rule was "vicious", and people should avoid it.

Addressing a public meeting near Thatha, Rahim said he was expressing his views with apologies to the women present at the meeting, the Geo News reported.

Rahim said that it was regrettable, but the fact nevertheless was that people should try to avoid it at all cost.

Commenting on Rahim's views, Pakistan Human Rights Commission Chairwoman Asma Jehangir said that it was surprising that Rahim was representing a moderate and enlightened government, and simultaneously saying that woman's rule was vicious.
