Aima Baig

In a heartfelt and powerful move, beloved Pakistani singer Aima Baig has announced her commitment to fighting for women’s rights by launching the ‘Me Too Movement’ in Pakistan.

On Instagram, Aima shared how her spiritual journey has given her new strength and a sense of purpose. She spoke openly about the pain she’s seen other women endure and her own regret for staying silent. “I’ve seen so many young girls’ lives ruined by deceitful individuals,” she admitted. “For various reasons, I kept quiet, but I can’t do that anymore.”

Aima’s message is clear and impassioned: she wants to be a voice for women. “We are not toys or jokes; we are the reason for men’s existence in this world, and we deserve respect,” she declared.

She encouraged women to speak out against the injustices they face, highlighting the physical and emotional suffering many girls experience. Aima is determined to take action, saying, “I have a list of those who have harmed women. We will gather evidence and stand with every woman.”

The #MeToo movement, which began as a way to empower survivors of sexual harassment and assault to share their stories, has sparked significant changes worldwide. By bringing this movement to Pakistan, Aima hopes to break the silence surrounding harassment and create a safer environment for women. She believes that sharing stories and standing together can dismantle the structures that enable harassment.

Harassment, both in the workplace and in daily life, remains a pervasive issue in Pakistan. Many women face harassment in silence, fearing backlash or disbelief. Aima’s initiative aims to change this narrative, providing a platform where women can voice their experiences and seek justice. Her commitment to this cause signals a hopeful shift towards a more equitable society.
