    A ceremony was held at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs on Monday to praise Kazakhstan for granting 1,000 scholarships to Afghan students and highlight the importance of such opportunities.
    The ministry said so far 650 Afghan students had been sent to Kazakhstan, where they were currently studying in different fields, including medicine, law, economics as well as teacher and military training.
    With the departure of a new group of 168 Afghan students, the fourth phase of the Kazakhstan student scholarship programme for Afghan students has been completed.
    A statement from the ministry said the programme had been initiated under an agreement signed on November 22, 2009 by the presidents of Afghanistan and Kazakhstan.
    Kazakhstan has pledged to grant 1,000 scholarships at the bachelor and masters levels to Afghan students for a period of five years until 2015.

    A line[Durrand line] of hatred that raised a wall between the two brothers -Hamid Karzai

    For generations, the Hindus of India prayed for deliverance from "the venom of the cobra, the teeth of the tiger and the vengeance of the Afghan."


    The men of Kábul and Khilj also went home; and whenever they were questioned about the Musulmáns of the Kohistán (the mountains), and how matters stood there, they said, "Don't call it Kohistán, but Afghánistán; for there is nothing there but Afgháns and disturbances." Thus it is clear that for this reason the people of the country call their home in their own language Afghánistán, and themselves Afgháns. The people of India call them Patán; but the reason for this is not known. But it occurs to me, that when, under the rule of Muhammadan sovereigns, Musulmáns first came to the city of Patná, and dwelt there, the people of India (for that reason) called them Patáns—but God knows!
