A video of Miftah Ismail cleverly refusing to answer a sexist question about Maryam Nawaz and Hina Butt has gone viral on social media. Social media users are praising the PMLN leader for his response.
Anchorperson Shahzad Iqbal asked the politician who he thought was better-dressed, between PMLN Vice President Maryam Nawaz and or another party leader Hina Butt. The women politicians’ photos were shown when he asked this question.
Ismail however, didn’t respond to the question but commented that women already face a lot of problems in politics. “If you are going to ask a question on dressing sense you could’ve very well asked who was better dressed between Shahid Abbasi and Ehsan Iqbal,” Miftah responded.
Miftah went on to say that such questions shouldn’t be asked about women in politics as they already have other problems to face.
