Afghan Student: Under Taliban Rule, Teachers Go Hungry Or Don't Show Up At All

Mursal Kohistani, a student from Afghanistan's Parwan Province, spoke about problems with schools under Taliban rule during a call-in program broadcast by RFE/RL’s Radio Azadi on October 20. In her words, although secondary and high schools are open for girls in some provinces, little is happening in them. Call-in programs focusing on women's rights, produced by Radio Azadi, are continuing to reach listeners in Afghanistan, despite the Taliban takeover of the country.
