Malala Yousafzai
At the age of 15 years, Malala was shot in the head by a member of the Pakistan Taliban in October 2012. To receive treatment, she was flown to the UK.
Her recent comments on marriage had made controversy. In an interview with Vogue Magazine in June, Malala had said, “I still do not understand why people have to get married. If you want to have a person in your life then why do you have to sign marriage papers, why can not it just be a partnership?”
