          Shayesta,

          Manana for sharing these pictures. Was there any reconstruction or efforts to promote Pashto going on in Laghman?
          Even Adobe Photoshop can't change me.

          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!

            ^^ Mashriqi is the capital of Pashtu Adabiat and Pashtu literature.

              Zarawar Pacha, do you mind further elaborating?

                It's obvious, from pashtu institutions to poets, writers, intellects and all other aspects they are doing a great job.
                Parwosag kale da maref wazir pa khpala da khabara mata wakrala, aw bar bar ye wa well chey wos da Pashtu pa adabiato ke da yow walayat dai chey da jango na lag tsa pa qarara dai aw ma3seleen ye der motivated dee ham NAR ham SHAZA.
                There is a big thing for education in Mashriqi...

                  @ Shayesta

                  I feel in love with Laghman's sunrise and sunset. It is a beautiful scene

                  @ Admin khan

                  In Qaraghai, a new school has been built near my village. They teach only in Pashto, my cousin is one of the teachers there. Their text materials come from Jalalabad.

                    You know those calendars with scenery, do they have any with pictures of Afghanistan?

                        they speak Pashto now?
                        Majority are Pashto speaking there.

                        But since its so diverse....no one gives a damn on what you speak. There are many Nuristanis that come from the mountains, and they still speak their own language. The Pashai people still speak their own langugage there. The Kuchi people are both Pashto and Dari speakers. I think Laghman is one of those provinces that every ethnicity can live with one another.

                          I apologize for not posting enough pictures from Kabul because for whatever reason, a lot of pictures made in Kabul city got deleted from my mobile. I had made pictures starting from the airport, to the Western embassies, to one of my favorite places in Kabul; Chel-Metra. I will try to post them as soon as my family sends them to me from Afghanistan, for now I only got these ones.

                            I haven't been to Mazar myself because it was said to be unsafe for women, but I got the pictures taken by my cousins. The city is much more beautiful than this and I have also got pictures much better than these, but my cousins are also on those pictures and I don't think they would like it if I post their pictures online. :P

                              City I absolutely adored and gotta say that it also reminded me a lot of Murree (Islamabad). Here again the same story that my families were in the pictures in some gorgeous areas of Paghman, but those pictures I unfortunately can't post.
