Human Rights Commission of Pakistan (HRCP) in a statement issued on Saturday, said that PTI Chairman Imran Khan’s vile remarks about PML-N Vice-President Maryam Nawaz Sharif at the PTI's Multan rally have plumbed the depths of misogyny, reported 24NewsHD TV channel.
“It is simply unacceptable that the political narrative should crumble into such glaring intolerance and sexism,” HRCP said.
The rights body said that Mr. Khan is a national leader and he must learn to conduct national conversations with his political rivals and he owes an apology not just to Ms Sharif but to all women.
Climate Change Minister Senator Sherry Rehman from PPP also condemned the Imran Kahn remarks about Maryam Nawaz Sharif.
She said, “Strongly condemn such remarks. Hitting out at women with an arsenal of sexist remarks has been typical of this regime, but this is a new low.”
