The Majlis is mulling over a major plan to provide greater security for women, MP Zohreh Elahian announced recently.
The plan focusing on social security and domestic violence against women is now being carefully studied by MPs, Elahian said. Women's security is a major concern in need of paying more attention, she added. “Women's security in Iran is currently satisfying, but more serious consideration should be given to internalize women's high dignity in the society based on Islamic views and teachings,” she added.
Women's security from all aspects of making culture to legal issues are spotlighted in the proposal, the MP noted, expressing hope that the plan will be approved by the end of the current Iranian year (March 20, 2011).
