Abstract

The objective of this study is to examine the measures and steps taken by various federal and provincial governments for improving the state of women rights and empowering them. Challenges that women face arise from a combination of cultural, historical, religious, political, and economic factors. The federal and provincial governments over the years have taken some measures in order to prevent and uphold women’s rights. Applying the qualitative approach, this empirical study evaluates the gender transformative politics. Different awareness campaigns and measures have been launched and at the same time specialized agencies in different regions of the country have been created. Parliamentary, Provincial and Local councils have seen a rise in women representation manifold. Governments should establish more facilities like Darul Amans. Many women are trained at vocational centers face challenges in marketing their products. Government departments should devise strategies to help these women.
