HERAT CITY (Pajhwok): Trader representatives and factory owners in western Herat province have expressed concern over Taliban’s ban on women workers in factories.
HameedullahKhadem, former head of the Chamber of Industry and Natural Resources (CINR) and a factory owner in Herat City, said MaulviZaheer, the Taliban in-charge of CINR, had stopped women from working in factories.
The issue was raised with the Taliban deputy governor who reversed MaulviZaheer’s decision and allowed women workers of factories to work.
He, however, said that MaulviZaheer again warned women against going to factories and said no woman was allowed to work . . .
