In 2012, Malala Yousafzai was shot in the head by a Taliban gunman in the Swat Valley after she defied a Taliaban ban on girls’ education. After the attack on her, she moved to the UK enrolled at the University of Oxford, and became the youngest-ever recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize in 2014 at the age of 17. At the university, she made a distinction between herself and Nobel laureate Malala Yousafzai.
Kashmiri activist Yana Mir said in the UK Parliament building,
“But I object to you, Malala Yousafzai, defaming my country, my progressing homeland, by calling it ‘oppressed’. I object to all such ‘toolkit members’ on social media and foreign media who never cared to visit Indian Kashmir, but, fabricate stories of ‘oppression’ from there.”
“I urge you all to stop polarising Indians on grounds of religion, we won’t allow you to break up us. I hope our perpetrators living in the UK in Pakistan will stop maligning my country”.
Yana was addressing a Sankalp Divas event which was held by the Jammu and Kashmir Study Centre UK in the British Parliament building. She thanked the in-charge of BJP media of Kashmir, Sajid Yousuf Shah, and revealed how Yana came up with the Malala Yousafzai comparison.
Yana Mir wrote on X,
“Thank you, Sajid, for pushing me to go here, when I was depressed after we lost Dad. I wouldn’t have reached here if it wasn’t for you. Also, this Malala theory was given to me by my sister. So a person is nothing, without family support.”
