Nobel laureate Mala Yusufzai on Sunday saidn that her dream is to see India and Pakistan become "true good friends" as the people in both the countries want to live in peace. Speaking virtually at the Jaipur Literary Fest, Malala stressed that minorities need protection in every country, be it Pakistan or India, adding that the issue is not related to religion but to the "exploitation of power" and must be taken seriously. Yousafzai, a Pakistani activist for girls education who miraculously survived a bullet to the head from the militant Taliban in October 2012, said the news of internet shutdown and arrests of activists "protesting peacefully" in India is "worrying" and expressed the hope that the government will make sure that people are heard.
