Kabul: A senior UN official has said that the Taliban ruling Afghanistan told them that it would soon allow all Afghan girls to study in secondary schools. The Taliban will soon announce this. Omar Abdi, deputy executive director of the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF), who visited Kabul last week, said this while talking to reporters at the UN headquarters on Friday.

He told the media that five of Afghanistan's 34 provinces are already allowed to study in secondary schools in Balkh, Jawzjan and Samangan in the northwest, Kunduz in the northeast and Urozgan in the southwest. Omar Abdi said the Taliban education minister told him that he was working on a roadmap to allow all girls to continue their schooling beyond class VI. Which will be released between one and two months.

Omar Abdi has said, "Millions of girls in the age group of going to secondary school are deprived of education on the 27th day continuously. During the Taliban's 1996-2001 rule in Afghanistan, he deprived girls and women of the right to education and banned their work and public life.'' It remains to be seen how much the Taliban now follow what they say.
