Jamat-e-Islami held a women’s empowerment conference yesterday which as usual never caught anyone’s attention, until a picture emerged on the internet. The said picture shows all the Jamat-e-Islami leaders sitting at a table happily celebrating women’s day, with one slight problem— there is no actual woman sitting amongst them.
Social media as always was quick to turn this incident into a joke fest, and how!

Great work JI. You got one woman there and that too standing, sums it up perfectly your views & attitudes towards them. #Fail pic.twitter.com/2zykmZ8sN3

Women who defend this JI all-male panel saying ‘but zomg shut up liberalzzz there were women panels too’ are part of the problem.
