Pakistani education activist Malala Yousafzai and Indian child rights campaigner Kailash Satyarthi have received the Nobel Peace Prize awards.
The Nobel committee described both laureates as “champions of peace”.
Ms Yousafzai said she was there to stand up for the rights of forgotten and frightened children, and raise their voice rather than pity them.
Mr Satyarthi said receiving the prize was “a great opportunity” to further his work against child slavery.
Ms Yousafzai and Mr Satyarthi received their awards from the chairman of the Norwegian Nobel committee, in the presence of King Harald V of Norway.
They delivered their Nobel lectures during the award ceremony.

My Comment:
Luckily Malala had the apparent support of her father.She was backed by PPP,Pakistan ruling Party .She was working for BBC. May Allah help her if she consider Banazir as her aspiration. Sorry to say,
Banazir like other usual Pakistani Leaders had no morals. Banazir is among one of culprits responsible for running the country.
