Malala's book banned as she represents
West, not Pakistan'
The memoir written by Teen Pakistani activist Malala
Yousufzai was banned from all private schools in Pakistan as she represented
the West and not her native country, said the head of schools' association.
Adeeb Javedani, the president of the All Pakistan
Private Schools Management Association, said he got Malala's book banned from
the libraries of its 40,000 affiliated schools as Malala was a tool of the
West, she was representing the West, not Pakistan, reported the al Jazeera.
Malala's book - "I am Malala" – which was
co-authored by her and British journalist Christina Lamb, was published in
October this year and it recounts Malala's tale of her being shot at by
Taliban, her life in Swat under Taliban and her new life in Britain where she
now lives and studies.
