Great, salute to Zahida Kazmi she deserves it.
Women like Zahida Kazmi are the unsung heroes of our country.
No doubt Zahida Kazmi is performing a heroic deed.... i salute this great lady....."If I had a chance I would have become a doctor." this line brought tear in ma eyes...
yeah i agreee with Beenish...reading about her decent wish that cudnt come true makes emotional....n also what i m thingking over here that what makes her do this job?...here goes the answer.." "I am old now and I get tired. It's hard for me to drive all the time but what can I do? My sons don't help," she said..
her courage is giving her both respect and fame...Good luck Zahida Kazi..
yea beenish! living in pakistan,we can not see ALL our wishes becoming true! kuch khwahishien ,khwahishien he reh jaati hain!
i dont quite agree with you Rabbiya, if zahida could do it, anyone can, every now and then there comes an mind blowing story about courage of women in our country, you just need to have that passion for turning your khwahishien into reality, seriously i always thought when will i be able to get my self a scooty pep, females dont ride scooty pep in pakistan, they are not even available here... now i think why not??? :)
yeah rite insiya i totally agree with u every women have a power to do this kind of act .we just have to take an insipiration from that women
impressive women... great and helpful ideas because if she helps many women in driving taxi so we will see many females those who beg on road in taxi not in road.

She is the best example of Mother because it's only a Mother who struggle for her children after her husband's death to give them a good future. We should appreciate her and i think we should not feel guilty doing such type of work.
Good story but it would have been better if the reporter had asked her to narrate her experiences during driving too. She has driven to tribal areas after all. Also, as a reader, I want to know how has she managed to keep herself safe so far? Has she ever been bullied? Is she armed while driving?
the writer have shared this information that in early days of her driving she kept a gun with her....
Good story but it was short need to read some more about her consequences she faced in starting this job
