According to a BBC report, Karim Khurram, who is in charge of Ministry of Information and Culture, has sacked two employees of his ministry for using Persian words(Daanishgah=University, Negaristan=Gallery...etc) in their reports.
This is not the first time that such desperate racist acts have been committed against the Persian language and culture.
This undermines once again the fear of hardline Pashtoon nationalists in Afghanistan, that after the fall of the Taliban, ending Pashtoon rule of over 200 years in Afghanistan, the Persian language, culture and mentality would further affect every aspect of our society as it has been continously doing so in the past.
The National assembly plans to question Mr.Khurram about his actions, the outcome is yet to be decided.
