While Malala Yousufzai has already created buzz after the teen was shot by Talibans, reports confirm that she has got nomination for the 2013 Nobel Peace Prize. She has nearly missed death before she went through emergency skull reconstruction surgery and later was made to receive specialized medical care in Britain.
Though she managed to survive, the reason why she was treated as a threat is still reverberated by media. The girl promotes girls' education, and perhaps that's what has not gone down well with the Tahreek-e-Taliban', which after few hours of attack proudly claimed the responsibility. The attack has been condemned internationally, and showcases how Taliban can't allow any rising voice for women rights.
The brave girl, after releasing from hospital, is all set to continue spreading the same message despite all odds.
"Malala doesn't just represent one young woman, she speaks out for all those who are denied an education purely on the basis of their gender", said Shahida Choudhary, who has been leading a campaign to nominate Yousufzai for the nominate Yousufzai, in a statement issued by global petition platform Change. org. It has been reported that the call made to Prime Minister David Cameron and other senior government officials has been supported by tens of thousands of Britons.
