KABUL (Pajhwok): Civil society activists, staging a protest in Kabul on Thursday, said women were forced to beg in the city due to lack of jobs and economic hardships.
A number of women activists took part in the protest demonstration, saying women faced severe economic hardships since they became unemployed and forced to stay at home.
One of the protesters, Hussain Sarwari, told Pajhwok Afghan News that many women were even forced to beg, which was intolerable.
She said the purpose of their protest was for women to raise their voices and demand their rights from the new rulers.
