'Need to address violation of women's rights in Asia'

ALLAHABAD: State law secretary, Antarrashatriya Manavadhikar Association and state counsel in the Allahabad high court Govind Kumar Saxena, accompanied by president of state minority cell, Antarrashtriya Manavadhikar Association Hasan A Naqvi shared their views in a seminar on "Violation of human rights of women in Asia", held at Bangkok recently.

Saxena said basic human rights of women in Asia, in particular, are being violated everyday, and less than 23% women are aware of their basic rights. Rest of the women, being suppressed, uneducated or scarcely educated serving under constant family pressure are ignorant about their basic human rights, he added.
