Shakila is a citizen of Afghanistan. The Bonn Conference that chose Hamid Karzai as the leader of the Afghan Transitional Administration charged him to appoint a Constitutional Loya Jirga.[1] Karzai appointed Shakila one of 502 appointees. She sat on the first of the Loya Jirga's ten committees, chaired by Ustad Sayaf.[2] She was a member of the Gender and Law Working Group as a representative of the Ministry of Women’s Affairs.[3]
