THE prospect of enacting legislation against domestic violence inevitably throws certain sections of this society into a moral panic. Specious arguments referring to traditional and religious values are used to give a patina of legitimacy to what is essentially a desire to preserve a misogynistic culture predicated on men controlling women. Unfortunately, it seems that for many in the PTI government, the protection of women is subservient to pandering to these regressive elements. Adviser to the PM on Parliamentary Affairs Babar Awan has written to the National Assembly speaker seeking a review by the Council of Islamic Ideology of the domestic violence bill passed by the Lower House in April this year. In his communiqué, Mr Awan said that concerns have been raised “regarding various definitions and other contents of the bill”.
