Children need school in Chitral

Zar Ali Khan Afridi with school children at Atani lasht a far flung village in mountains at Ayun-Chitral. This village was damaged and hard hit by recently devastating earth quake. The epicenter was also located some where in near by mountains. People in village demanded for boys and girls schools. They said that their children had to travel more than 7-8 kilometers distance across mountains for school. In winter season their children weep at morning due to snow and harsh weather and they get slipped on snow and it is reason that many children have got fractured legs and hands. The demand was made at a time when elders had tears in their eyes
