Pakistan Peoples Party Senator Sherry Rehman has called out the Pakistan Civil Aviation Authority for the lack of queues for women at the Jinnah International Airport and has threatened to take the authority to court over the matter.
In a tweet from her official account, the senator stated that only one gate was open for women at the airport, while men could walk through three gates. She further threatened to take CAA to court over the matter and that an extra gate should be opened for women as they were equal citizens before law.
