The Lahore High Court (LHC) has achieved a significant milestone by appointing the inaugural female registrar.

Chief Justice Miss Aalia Neelum has appointed Abher Gul Khan as the registrar of LHC, replacing the former registrar Abdur Rasheed.

It is important to mention that, for the first time ever in the history of LHC, a woman has been appointed as registrar. Today, judge Aalia Neelum took the oath of office as the inaugural female chief judge of LHC.

Ayesha Malik holds the distinction of being the inaugural female Supreme Court judge. Justice Ayesha Malik has deemed the practice of using two-finger tests to determine the virginity of female victims of sexual offences as unscientific and lacking medical justification.

Justice Syeda Tahira Safdar became the first female to be promoted to the position of chief justice in any court in Pakistan. She was inaugurated as the chief justice of the Balochistan High Court (BHC).

Justice Musarrat Hilali has been inaugurated as the inaugural female chief justice of the Peshawar High Court (PHC).

The current development is both accepting and progressive, with women trailblazers making significant achievements and flourishing in their various sectors.

The promotion of women to higher positions in their respective industries serves as a source of inspiration for young women and fosters an environment that is conducive to their well-being.

Brave and audacious women are currently joining the judiciary, a profession predominantly dominated by males, and working towards ensuring accessibility and fairness for women inside the judicial system.

Integrating women into the court system will establish a fair, comprehensive, and compassionate system of justice.
