Justice Mansoor Ali Shah of the Supreme Court of Pakistan has stressed the need for women’s participation in the country’s judiciary.
Justice Mansoor Ali Shah pointed out the gap between population demographics and the representation of women within the country’s judicial system.
“Article 34 of our Constitution mandates full participation of women in all spheres of life,” said Justice Shah. He also said that 50 percent of the country’s population is women, but only 16 percent are connected with the judiciary.
