Adviser to Chief Minister of Balochistan on Women Development Dr. Rubaba Khan Buledi has said that violence against women not only harms individuals but also undermines the intellectual, social and moral fabric of the entire society. Speaking on Tuesday on the eve of International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women, she said that all forms of violence — including domestic abuse, harassment, threats, humiliation, and economic exploitation — severely damage a woman’s freedom, confidence, identity, and dignity.
She said that when a woman does not feel safe at home, in the workplace or public spaces, the consequences go beyond individual suffering and creates instability, fear, and imbalance in society.
