However, this year the organizers of the Aurat March Karachi have decided hold much awaited Aurat March will be held on March 12 this year.
The decision has been made in honor of working women as Women’s Day is observed on 8 March which is a weekday and every year Aurat March is also held on the same day but this way many working-class communities lose the opportunity to be part of such a crucial day.
This way, organisers have decided to hold Aurat March in Karachi on Sunday i.e March 12 instead so that working-class women can also be a part of this.
