School girls urge Taliban to re-open secondary schools for girls

Kabul, Oct 12 (UNI) Madina, who is currently in the 12th grade of a school in Kabul, says she hopes secondary schools for girls in Kabul and the rest of the country will be reopened soon. “I am optimistic after the reopening of schools in some provinces. We wish that schools will be opened in Kabul and other provinces too,” she said.
“Because the winter is coming and the weather is getting cold and facilities are very limited in public schools, so then we can’t study,” she added.
Ever since the Islamic Emirate came into power on August 15, secondary schooling for girls has been by and large closed. However, the secondary schools for girls of three northern provinces -- Balkh, Kunduz and Sar-i-Pul—were reopened two days ago.
