I happened to catch this.
I remember Prof Pareshan Khattak well.
He gave me some excellent background in interviews when I was covering
the Soviet war against Afghanistan.
I was thinking to mention him on a thread, because I had not seen
any reference so far, at least at that time a year ago.
He was a VERY RESPECTED authority.
I assume he is no longer alive, as that was quite some time ago.
I still have the notes around, though.
Some of these famous academics in Pashto language and culture
need to be highlighted here for future generations, as well as to
show respect for their accomplishments.
Ajmal Khattak -the name is familiar, but I have forgotten by now
exactly who he was. Too many things have happened since that time.
We maybe should have a thread dedicated to great academic figures.
Then later members who know more could fill in details or add to the comments in an organized way.
