12 March, 2021: Aurat Azadi March condemns the false allegations of blasphemy leveled at the march and its organizers in the strongest possible words. We are horrified, distressed and angry to see that so many organizers of Aurat Azadi March are falsely being accused of blasphemy, and deny all these baseless and unfounded allegations. We reiterate that no anti-religious slogans and placards were present in Islamabad.

Our posters for this year commemorate the connected struggles for women’s emancipation across Pakistan, as women fight for safety, well-being, recognition and equality across geographies, cultures and faiths.

#AuratAzadSamajAzad This poster honours in particular the women of Balochistan leading the non-violent movement against enforced disappearances and injustices in Balochistan.

We are disgusted to hear the news of MNA Maulana Salahuddin Ayubi’s marriage to a 14-yr old girl from Chitral who was a student of Government Girls High School, Jughoor, where her DOB had been recorded as Oct 28, 2006, which means that she hasn’t attained the age of marriage. We march, organize & advocate because in this patriarchal country, men in power are blatantly undermining the few laws that are there to protect women and girls.

In Pakistan, every 5th girl is married under the age of 18.

We have all been told that Feminism/#AuratAzadiMarch is unnecessary, because equality has already been achieved.

This is #WhyWeMarch.

#AuratAzadiMarch2021 This idea feeds into the common stereotype of feminists as angry, man-hating witches, who must be overreacting since there is no real problem to solve. But gender inequality exists everywhere in the world. And it is particularly severe in Pakistan.

The Islamabad High Court has dismissed the arguments in the petition against the Aurat Azadi March!

These were the remarks by Chief Justice Athar Minallah on the petition submitted against us:

#AuratAzadiMarch2020 Have you read the demands issued by the organizers circulated widely on media & able to highlight anything unconstitutional or unIslamic? On what basis can you hypothesize is that there demands & slogans are bound to be unIslamic? Do you have any evidence to support your claim?
