The Taliban government in Afghanistan has announced that schools and colleges will open for women in the country from next week. Education Minister in the Taliban government, Aziz Ahmed Ryan, has said that schools will open for both boys and girls from next week. However, along with this, the Taliban government has put a condition that boys and girls will study in different schools. This means that boys’ schools will be different and girls’ schools will be different. Not only this, only ladies teacher will teach in girls’ school. In remote areas where there is a shortage of teachers, elderly male teachers will be able to teach girls. Aziz Ahmed said that no schools will be closed this year. This effort of the Taliban government is being seen as an attempt to improve its image on the international stage.
In fact, many countries of the world have banned the Taliban. Many countries do not give government status to the Taliban and consider it a terrorist organization. The international community has been raising its voice for the education and rights of women and girls in Afghanistan.
The Taliban have been accused of human rights violations. The international community alleges that the Taliban take revenge on their opponents. However, the Taliban says that it is ready for any kind of investigation. Significantly, the Taliban government has implemented Islamic law in Afghanistan. The Taliban has issued an order that no woman will go out without wearing a burqa. Not only this, the Taliban government has also decreed that no woman will go out alone. Even if a woman needs to go out of the house, then it is necessary to have a man with her.
