Jirga is a non-official but restricted institution that exists in Pashtun social structures.. Jirga is defined as the group of members of exact subgroup of Pashtun, considering a matter of universal interests. Particularly in tribal communities adhering to Pashtun traditional standards, it is viewed as a cover of safety and protection for the underprivileged. Jirga is used to settle conflicts over public and private space. Jirga upholds democratic principles and maintains an impartial stance when mediating and arbitrating disputes between plaintiffs.
