Yana Mir, a social activist and a journalist from Jammu and Kashmir, was honoured in the UK Parliament with the Diversity Ambassador award. Ms Mir's speech countering “propaganda“ against Jammu and Kashmir is going viral, where she said she is “not a Malala Yousafzai“, the Nobel Peace Prize winner from Pakistan who has taken refuge in the UK. At an event hosted by the Jammu and Kashmir Study Centre, UK, Ms Mir said, “I'm not a Malala I'm safe and free in my homeland Kashmir, which is part of India. I will never run away from my homeland and seek refuge in your country (UK). I can never be a Malala Yousafzai.“ #yanamir #ukparliament #kashmirijournalist #news18
