The de facto government of the Taliban banned education for girls studying in secondary schools in September last year, a month after the Islamists seized power in Kabul. Haseebullah Malyar, who runs the institute, said they had to “filter and identify those in need of free education.” Some 1,600 girls signed up on the day when Ekhlas Naween Educational Center offered free classes for Afghan students who could not afford schools. Kabul, Nov 10 (EFE).- A 2,000-student free educational institution in Kabul has become a modest haven for women seeking to escape Taliban diktats that have kept Afghan girls out of school.
