In a groundbreaking development within the realm of Pakistani politics, Saveera Parkash, a trailblazing doctor, has etched her name in history by submitting nomination papers as the first woman from a minority community to vie for a general seat. The courageous move signals a progressive shift in the political landscape of the country.
Hailing from the Buner district in the northwestern region of Pakistan, Saveera Parkash’s political journey unfolds as a member of the Pakistan People’s Party (PPP), an allegiance deeply ingrained in her family for decades. Her foray into electoral politics positions her as a formidable contender in the upcoming general elections, where she is poised to engage in a spirited competition with the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI).
In a recent statement to a local publication, Saveera articulated her earnest desire to champion the cause of the underprivileged, with a particular emphasis on women who have endured historical suppression and neglect. Her platform reflects a commitment to addressing societal inequities and advocating for marginalized communities.
A qualified medical professional, Saveera pursued her MBBS at Abbottabad Medical College in 2022, showcasing a dedication to education and healthcare. Beyond her medical pursuits, she holds the esteemed position of general secretary of the PPP women’s wing in Buner, underscoring her active involvement in political and social spheres.
Saveera’s audacious decision to enter the political arena has not gone unnoticed, garnering support from activists who laud her for shattering stereotypes and defying societal norms. Her candidacy represents a pivotal step towards fostering diversity and inclusivity within Pakistani politics, setting an inspiring precedent for others to emulate
