Famous slogan Mera Jism Meri Marzi has been criticized and many people are unable to understand it and they end up calling this slogan ‘vulgar’.
An interesting Twitter exchange between Mahira Khan and social activist Shehzad Roy took place where Shehzad Roy first explained the meaning of the controversial slogan.
He explained and said, “Don’t understand the problem so many are having with #MeraJismMeriMarzi“-Mera jism meri marzi nahi toh kis ki marzi ho gi?? “My body is mine” is a critical component of the Life Skills Based Education classes we teach to help children protect themselves from abuse & harassment.“
Mahira Khan came forward and requested television shows to invite people like Shehzad Roy who work day and night for the betterment of society.
She said, “Dear channels, get him on your shows. He works day and night for the betterment of our future. Let your children listen to men and women like him! Thank you.”
