Former Prime Minister late Benazir Bhutto introduced the trend to nominate women on the coveted position of secretary information in the Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) on all levels. Sherry Rehman replaced Taj Haider in the centre whereas Dr Fehmida Mirza and Farzana Raja replaced male office bearers in Sindh and Punjab respectively. The purpose to nominate women on this position was to give out a soft and liberal image of the party to the world, a mission which the PPP accomplished as the party was portrayed in a modern light in the world.
