Malala’s book launch

WHAT a shame that the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa government has stopped the ceremony to launch Malala Yousufzai’s book, I am Malala, at the Peshawar University.

Pity the nation that keeps on harping on the supremacy of the constitution but cannot provide security to even a premier university of the country. What signals do we send to the world when we invite international teams to come and play in Pakistan, on the one hand, and stop a book launch for fear of security, on the other hand?
