ISLAMABAD: A wave of criticism erupted on the social networking websites following Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) MNA Arif Alvi’s statement in Quatrina Hosain’s talk show about giving in to the Taliban’s demands of separate schools for boys and girls. Later the MNA cleared his stance saying people should have the right to choose.

During the show, aired on Wednesday, Alvi stated that the Talibans made four demands and one of them was about an end to co-education. Discussing the demands of Taliban, Alvi said, “If they (Taliban) do not want co-education in the area, let’s just stop it.”

Absolutely. Our so called liberal and progressive thinkers keep bringing Taliban in every argument. There are regions in Pakistan that are conservative despite the curse of Taliban. they would not want their kids to study in mixed environment.

So whats the issue here?

I cannot seem to understand why do these people make a issue out of everything PTI representatives say, matlab takleef kiya hai in logo ko?

Mate, this show's your Medieval thinking. In future, if Taliban want Pakistani Men to confined at home, will you confined yourself to home or fight these thugs???? or if you fail in achieving something, won't you fight for it or just QUIT like a Looser i

There was a video and Twitter post's along with this article which I could not post (I tried to post but I could not, if anyone knows how to POST them then please do it)...
