Gharida Farooqi sends message to women

Journalist Gharida Farooqi had a photo shoot. Gharida shared the update in her Instagram post where she also wrote about things needed to keep in mind while having any attire.

“Smile. Confidence. Style. That’s all what a girl needs to wear…” she said.

There were mixed reviews of her post.

Gharida is one of the prominent names in Pakistan’s media. Last year, former prime minister Imran Khan’s comments on her invited scorn.

Journalists and politicians criticised Khan after he allegedly stated that the journalist was asking to be harassed online as she was “invading male-dominated spaces”.

He made comments while speaking to a delegation from the National Press Club (NPC) and the Rawalpindi Islamabad Union of Journalists (RIUJ) in Islamabad where he was asked about female journalists being harassed and trolled at the party’s rallies.

Moreover, the Committee to Protect Journalists also spoke about her in their article on May 5, 2022.
