Taliban’s ban on the right to education for women in Afghanistan has caused widespread reactions in the past week.
Many male students at various universities in Afghanistan, in response to the Taliban ban, have declared that they are not ready to attend their classes until the Taliban leadership revokes the decree.
More than 60 university lecturers in Afghanistan have also resigned in response to the Taliban’s decision to ban education for girls.
