Malala Yousafzai, the courageous little Swati girl from the northern areas of Pakistan, has become the youngest ever Nobel Laureate in the world. By winning the coveted Nobel Peace Prize she has made the Pakistani nation proud. She, in fact, has become the second Pakistani to have won the Prize. The first Pakistani who had won the Nobel Prize was eminent Pakistani scientist, Prof Dr Abdul Salam. The prestigious Nobel award conferred upon Malala is shared by her with Kailash Satyarthi, Indian Child Rights Activist.
The Nobel Peace Prize won by Malala Yousafzai is indeed well-deserved. The courage demonstrated by this young education activist from Pakistan has no parallel in Pakistan’s, perhaps even world’s, history. That Malala continues to pursue her mission to promote the cause of education, particularly among women, not only in Pakistan but world over, despite all odds, reflects nothing but her burning desire to fulfill the cause she has always strongly stood for. The vision that this young Pakistani girl possesses regarding her mission and the eloquence and courage with which she propagates her thoughts, in high-profile international foras, is truly remarkable.
Her profound ability to lucidly and courageously express her views on the issue of ‘women education’ has made the heads of many renowned personalities of the world turn around and intently listen to what she has to say. It wouldn’t be pertinent to say that by winning the Nobel Peace Prize Mala Yousafzai has brought unparalleled glory to Pakistan and the Pakistani nation that is currently passing through one of the most critical times in its history. The nation has every reason to celebrate this outstanding achievement of Malala. Congratulations, Malala. Congratulations, Pakistan.
