India Wins the Blind Cricket

Rohan and Priyanka have been very excited at the fact
that a teenager and an Indian won the Nobel Peace Prize
this time around. They watched the entire ceremony with
a lot of excitement.
Also, they found Malala’s thoughts and opinions to be
very rational. Malala Yousafzai the 17 year old courageous
girl from the North West Province of Pakistan, won the
Nobel Peace Prize for her grit and determination to
receive and spread education amongst all girls in Pakistan.
Despite threats from the Taliban and having been shot in
the head, she stood by her conviction. This is a story of
courage, worth talking about.
This Wednesday, as Malala received the prize, her regret
was, that children had to fight to receive what was their
basic right, the right to education. She also felt that if
children are taught tolerance, patience and peace, then
by God’s grace there will be good relations between India
and Pakistan and we will be like brothers once again.
On the other hand, Kailash Satyarthi, who had also won
the Nobel Prize along with Malala, had worked extensively
for the rights of children. He, 60 now, has spent his
entire life working for the welfare of children.
Satyarthi felt that, peace is every child’s human and
fundamental right”. He added that, “Our youth should
also realise that with respect, with freedom, with
good education and with peace we want to live our
lives. And if there comes any obstacle in this path, the
youth from India and Pakistan will strengthen the fight
for peace under the leadership of our daughters like
Malala.”
Malala, the youngest recipient of a Nobel Prize, said it
was her wish that Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif

Worldcup!

Rons and Pranks both tried playing cricket with
their eyes shut. But they were too scared.
Mumma papa warned that it wasn’t something
they should try as it was dangerous.
They wondered, how did the brave hearts
actually get to playing professional cricket
without being able to see, and that too so well?
Of course, they were immensely proud that
India had won the blind world cup against
Pakistan, this year, but what inspired them was
the grit and determination of all the athletes,
who fought all odds to play the game.
