We have to give exams. Oh.. M-I think, he should have not bothered in the first place. V-You girls dont know what you are taking about. Let me explain you the importance of education and how some people are being deprived of it through two stories.

Father-shut up, you are asking me to buy you a new dress? In fact I was thinking about giving you food only once in a day to cut the expenditure Scene4 marriage N-Few days pass and suddenly it is decided that the 6 year old girl would marry a 50 year old man. Daughter-Please I dont want to marry now, I want to study. Father-You will have to marry him or I will burn you alive. N-She is married off in a rural village Scene 5 the talk V-Dont you think that if the girl was educated she could have fought against this injustice A-aahoohaah V-Dont bother to reply now. Tell me your views after the next story Scene 6 the final story N-It is January 14 the night before the ban. Tomorrow 50,000 girls will lose their education. Tensions are high especially in this house. Lets see the crisis in this house. Father-Tomorrow is the deadline, 15 January. We th
wont be able to take any risks. The Talibans have
already blown 100s of schools. Malala-You have run this girls school for 14 years and now you are closing it? Father-Yes, I have to. Many activists have been shot dead. Although I have not yet received any direct threat, I can be killed any movement. Malala-Dont say things like that father. Father. Father-You know Malala, sometimes I sleep elsewhere to avoid drawing any attention on our family. Malala-Sometimes I think when the Tallibans come I will hide in the bathroom and call the police and they will come and save you. Or I will tell you to hide in the cupboard and they will not check there and you will be safe. Father-what will you do if it doesnt works out (malala sobs) Scene7 The obstacle Father-Child, I have decided to stay here in swath Malala-Why? Father-As you know swath has given me so much. My conscience would kill me if I leave it in times of need. Malala-Father you are the worlds kindest person, I can bet. Father-But I think it will create an obstacle for your studies. Malala-I will study at home or any place I can.The Talibans cant stop me from getting educated. N-She writes blog about her life in swath. Campaigning about the right of every person to study, attracting attention from all over the world. In spite of the death threats against her by the talibans. Scene8 the interview N-Malala is shot on head by the the talibans. This is the interview taken after her recovery Host-Today she is the girl who stood up for girls education and was shot by the Talibans and is also the youngest to be nominated for a nobel peace award. Welcome (she enters)(claps) Host- thank you for coming tonight Malala-It is an honour for me Host-No it is a honour for us. It is honestly humbling to meet you. From where did your love for education come from? Malala-We are human beings and this is the part of our human nature that we dont learn the importance of anything until it is snatched away from our hands and when in Pakistan we were stopped from going to school at that time I realized that education is very important and education is the power for women and that is why the terrorists are afraid of education. They do not want women to get education because then the women would became more powerful Host-Exactly, Exactly right. (claps) when did you realize the Taliban had made you a target? Malala-In 2012 I was with my father. Someone came and told us I have seen on Google, the talibans have threatened to kill you. I could just not believe it and I said no its not true and even after the threat when we saw it I was not worried about myself that much but I was worried about my father because we thought that the talibans are not that much cruel that they would kill a child because I was 14 at the time but later on I started thinking about that and I used to think that the talib would come and he would just kill me and then I said if he comes what would you do Malala then I would reply myself Malala just take a shoe and hit him but then I thought what would be the difference between me and the talib and then I thought I will fight him with education ,words and peace and I will tell him that I want education for everyone even for his child and then I will tell him to do whatever he wants. Host-I am touched. I know that your father is backstage will he be mad if I adopt you. (malala laughs) Host-Thankyou Malala we were pleased to talk to you. Scene 8 The realization M-You were right, we take back all our words A-Yes we realized how important education is and how much lucky we are. (M chimes in ) M-to come to school and study without fear V-I am glad you relized.
