KABUL (Pajhwok): A number of deaf people on Sunday staged a protest demonstration through capital Kabul and demanded a reserved seat in parliament for their community.

Around 100 deaf youth gathered at Zambaq Square around 11:30am and handed over a list of their demands to representatives of the Presidential Palace.

The slogans they chanted included: “We want representation in parliament to defend our rights.” “We would act against laws if the government does not respond to our demands.”
