Khyber Union of Journalists created a history by electing a female as 
G.S. (Aneela Shaheen)
I must pay my compliments to the members of the Khyber Union of Journalists (KhuJ), who, in fact, created a history in the PFUJ by electing a female as a “General Secretary” Aneela Shaheen in a one to one contest with a man.
It is also to dispel the impression that the people of the province are narrow-minded and do not allow women a fair chance in all the fields.
I myself and on behalf of the all the PFUJ would like to
congratulate newly-elected General Secretary of the Khyber Union of Journalists and I am confident that it would encourage other women to come forward and join the profession of journalism and lead the media persons in the UJs.
Well done Khyber Union of Journalists for taking a lead in encouraging women and proving that women have equal chances in all fields.
How much journalists of the Pukhtoonkhwa are enlightened, it can be judged from the fact that their “forefathers preferred to name their UJ as the Khyber Union of Journalists which has its own history.
No doubt you all are great and your forefathers were great in all respect.
