IRNA � President Hassan Rouhani says women�s active presence in all political, social and educational fields is a golden page in the history of the Islamic Revolution and this belies allegations leveled against Iran by the so-called human rights advocates.


Addressing a meeting of High Council on Cultural Revolution, he congratulated the Mother�s Day which coincides with the auspicious birth anniversary of Prophet Mohammad�s (PBUH) beloved daughter Hazrat Fatemeh (AS), saying that She has been and will always be the great role model for women across the world.

Presence of three women in the Cabinet�s lineup and holding of high positions such as deputy ministers by seven women reveals the special attention paid by his 'Government of Prudence and Hope' to women�s rights and capabilities, the President said.

�The Iranian nation�s love for Prophet Mohammad�s (PBUH) Infallible Household and following them are our biggest assets in the Islamic Revolution,� he said.

Hailing the role of mothers in educating society and promoting culture as irreplaceable, he said that mothers and women have played a big part in upholding the country�s independence and in the victory of the 1979 Islamic Revolution.
