On Thursday, singer and social activist Shehzad Roy shared a personal interaction on social media with a woman working at a petrol station.
In the video, a woman attendant is seen filling fuel in his bike, a job usually reserved for men. Roy mentioned that he filmed the video with the woman’s consent.
“I went to put petrol in my motorbike, and while turning off the bike and taking off my helmet, I heard a female voice say, ‘Nice bike, full tank, sir?’
I told both the girls that they were my role models and that they gave me a reason to believe in Pakistan. Wah!” Roy wrote.
As a social activist, Roy has always emphasized the importance of involving women in education, various jobs, and employment sectors for the country’s progress.
Roy, a strong advocate for women’s rights and welfare in Pakistan, runs a non-profit organization called ‘Zindagi Trust’, which focuses on girls’ education in the country.
