What khalil ur rehman said about #MeraJismMeriMarzi.


LAHORE - Pakistani writer and director, Khalil-ur-Rehman Qamar has been the talk of the town since his hit drama serial ‘Mere Paas Tum Ho’ which has gained both critical and favourable remarks. Ahead of International Women’s Day 2020, Khalil-ur-Rehman Qamar had a discussion around feminism and Aurat March in a talk show.
As we all know about the director’s short-tempered behaviour, he got into an abusive spat with a participant during the talk show. At first, Khalil-ur-Rehman Qamar carried on with his bit of conversation before he was interrupted by Marvi Sirmed, a former journalist.
Marvi Sirmed triggered the extremely short-tempered writer with a slogan of the upcoming Aurat March he had previously taken issue with: ‘Mera Jisam meri Marzi.’
This harmless little phrase got Khalil-ur-Rehman Qamar all riled up. After that, he got into a profanity-laced spat with Marvi and used some unacceptable and disgraceful remarks during the LIVE show. Khalil-ur-Rehman Qamar is known for his fringe views especially related to feminism.
Marvi Sirmed has a record of getting into abusive rants on television, too. Moreover, hashtags of #MeraJismMeriMarzi and #khalilurrehmanqamar is trending top on Twitter.
Senator Sherry Rehman has demanded an apology from the TV show’s management.

what Journalism is doing in the time of the coronavirus?

As the threat of a COVID-19 pandemic becomes closer to reality, media practitioners must face up to the possibility that they may end up being more than non-participant observers.   The  disease , which has killed over 2,800 people and infected more than 82,000 mostly in China where the virus is believed to have originated, has met two of the three factors for a pandemic — rapid sickness and death and sustained person-to-person transmission. The third criteria, worldwide spread of the virus, seems like just a matter of time. “Those in the media face a direct threat to their health and lives as well” Joel Adriano, SciDev.Net Asia & Pacific Regional Coordinator To prevent or halt global spread, several countries have imposed travel bans to and from China and now South Korea, the hotspots of the virus. Many events around the world have been cancelled or postponed indefinitely. For a journalist, this means fewer events to cover. Particularly impacted are those coverin...

On Wednesday,  rockets killed two American troops and one British soldier there . The US responded with air strikes targeting an Iranian-backed militia. However, Iraqi officials say that Iraqi soldiers and policemen were killed in the strikes. The Iraqi military says the latest attack on Taji must not be used by the US as a pretext for any action without Iraq's approval.
