  I’m 29, born and raised in Peshawar, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. As a Pashtun, it’s heartbreaking that in my 18 years of education I never studied even a single chapter about Bacha Khan. Our own history was kept hidden from us. Thank you, Al Jazeera, for bringing this lost history back to light.

  ഞാൻ തെക്കേ ഇന്ത്യൻ മലയാളിയാണ്... 54 വയസുള്ള ഞാൻ 1984 ൽ എന്റെ 9- ആം ക്‌ളാസിലുള്ള ടെക്സ്റ്റിൽ frontier Ghandhi യെ കുറിച് ചരിത്രത്തിൽ പഠിച്ചിരുന്നു. നമ്മൾ ഇന്ത്യക്കാർക്ക് എന്നും ഇഷ്ടം ❤. ഇതിലെ പല കാര്യങ്ങളും ആ സമയത്ത് തന്നെ ടീച്ചേർസ് പറഞ്ഞു തന്നിരുന്നു.. Thnx Al Jazeera

  I am a 40 years old pakistani. I only heard the name bacha khan. And A lot of misconceptions about him. &nbsp;But I got to know him for the first time in my life because of this wonderful documentary of a great great baba bacha khan sahab. A lot of respect for him. I will now start to research and read more about him. Thanks Aljazeera.

  I am from india .we were educated in school about him as great leader in independence..he is highly regarded and repected amongst our generation. He was lovingly addressed as gandhi of frontiers in my country. We never knew that he was jailed and treated badly as traitor post independence by pakistani govt. very sad and disheartening seeing Great hero and human being treated not according to his accomplishment. He will always be remembered with immense respect and gratitude as great freedom fighter and activist of our nation..<br> &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;My high regard to the frontier gandhi..
