Domestic Violence
Domestic Violence is wide spread in Pakistan, what is worst about this form of violence is the fact that there are people who really do not consider domestic violence an criminal act, it is supposed to be private affair and state has nothing to do with it.

Discrimination against women
Women are discriminated against by the society on baseless thinking and perception. Employment opportunity for women are limited and that too is underpaid, other than that multiple form of discrimination is perpetrated against women.
