Malala Yousafzai stunned the world surviving a gunshot to her head on her way to school. Shot by the Taliban along with two of her other friends for the sole reason that they were girls still attending school, she recuperated only to become an activist for female education and supported millions of children, specially girls in their venture to gain their right to education.
Just 20 years of age, she has inspired nations, women and children from all corners of the earth to stand up for their rights.
Here are a few of her achievements in the last one year:

Everybody should get an opportunity to drench themselves in the magic of learning ,no matter what human category .
Nothing in the world makes one human more righteous to this magic than the other . People like Malaya are actually thriving more Malalas to make the world give up this wrong delusion of theirs.

Dear Malala,
“If one man can destroy everything, why can’t one girl change it?”
These words of yours truly changed my way of thinking. From a young age, though there is no stereotyping in our country- India, it somehow grew on me that there were somethings girls did and some girls didn’t. But after reading your book, I felt that instead of grumbling about how unfair certain things were, I could stand up and voice my opinion against them.
In the yesteryears, I used to -and still- have long debates with my friends about why a girl can’t be respected for what she is. As a fellow Muslimah, I understand the rules we must follow and accept it wholeheartedly, but others forms of stereotyping girls as weak and foolish really angers me. Then I started talking back to people, reasoning out with them.
Just last year, I was reading your book -“I am Malala”, and a few boys in my class really didn’t understand what the book was about. I couldn’t believe that they hadn’t heard of you! They thought it was just another book I was reading and began singing the word “Malala” in a really irritating way.
At first, I ignored it and then, since we were on our lunch hour I stood up and spoke about who YOU were and what YOU had done. When the boys heard the fact that you had survived a gunshot to the head, they really were ashamed about what they had done. A few girls even began to clap! At the end of my small speech, many people began asking for the book and a good many of them even finished reading it!
Anyway, I think on that day I really felt proud of being a girl! I really look forward to reading your new book – “We Are Displaced: True Stories of Refugee Lives”. I really wish I could have a signed copy!
InsaAllah, one day I wish I could meet you too. You really have been a great inspiration to me and countless other girls in the world. I really admire the fact that you are really that one in a million person, who uses her social media for a good cause. You taught me that nothing is impossible and injuries can only deter you not make you give up.
Yours Sincerely,
Rhea.M

I always used to believe and woul always believe that god is hidden in sculptures or stones but are hidden in true humanbeings and you are surely one of them.I am proud to have a sisiter like you because according to me -“all people are my sisters and brothers, but only those who are worthy to be called humans..”
I am glad to enjoy and celebrate this day but I wold be more glad and happy , when all our sisters are proud enough to say that “I AM A GIRL”. And would be courageous enough to fight against the inequalities against them. The more no: MALALAs are born , smiles will bloom on more no: of faces .The day every parent would be
proud to have a girl and the day when no girl would regret on her faith would be the real “MALALA DAY”.Every person is born to do something great ,its not only you or me….
Lets all take an initiative from our side to make this day possible . And our sister malala has taken such a big initiative . Now its our TURN.
With love
From your Indian sister

It is a very proud feeling that a girl like
MALALA YOUSAFZAI stood up like this for the rughts
of every child and every women!?
But it will be infact great if the whole world
stand up for their own rights and fight against every injustice
anywhere.. I’m sure MALALA will be very happy ti see that
..
After all a THREAT to JUSTICE anywhere
is INJUSTICE EVERYWHERE….

Dear malala yousafzai
In my byjus learning tree I read about you. It says that you were shot for standing up for girls rights.When I read this I felt so bad because I can’t believe that Taliban could do sucheck a thing to a brave girl like you. I was thinking about how it was so important to be fearless and brave because your winning is important.You are a wonderful role model for a student like me.So I really appreciate you for fighting for girls education otherwise we couldn’t be educated. Thank you so much for the sacrifice.
Sincerely your
Divya teja

“We realize the importance of our voices only when we are silenced.” …
“One child, one teacher, one book, one pen can change the world.” …
“When the whole world is silent, even one voice becomes powerful.” …
These are the quotes of Malala ….
