‘Leading By Example’: PPP Removes Office Bearer Who Posted Sexist Remarks Against PTI Activists

Published on

Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) has removed Sariya Rana from the position of Information Secretary Peoples Youth Organization (PYO) Central Punjab after she posted a misogynistic tweet against Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) activists. The tweet has now been deleted.

The devolvement comes amid mainstream political parties increasingly using misogynistic slurs targeting opponents.

The PPP has appointed Shehryar Chaudhary for the position, according to a notification doing rounds on social media.

Social media users have commended PPP for removing Sariya Rana from her position.

Muneeb Qadir lauded PPP, saying “that is how you lead by example”.

He also added that misogyny cannot be normalised.


While applauding PPP for the move, Aurat March urged all political parties to invest in training members, while asking them to ensure that there is zero tolerance towards sexism.


Another social media user commended PPP for “sticking to the party’s ideology” by removing the office bearer.
