How a Pakistani woman is making history this election

In Balochistan, the largest but least numerous state of Pakistan, Rehana Magsi is the first person to actually run for office.

Rehana asserts that she will not “give into fear and coercion” despite defying convention and dealing with challenges from influential political adversaries.

In the weeks leading up to the ballot on February 8, she has been running campaigns for electricity, roads, facilities, and universities.
