Never Been 1
365: April 5-11
Never Been
There were always a lot of dogs in Masyaf. If you’d call a dæmon that looked like a dog a dog at least. That didn’t stop most Assassins from having dog dæmons and Malik was no exception. Nishtar was a cream and white canaan dog and wasn’t even the only one. Canaan dogs were popular choices for Assassins along with their sleek saluki cousins. Ones who didn’t have dogs had other useful dæmons; birds or cats or even rats. Rauf had a mongoose and that made everyone just uneasy around him, especially the handful of men who had snakes as dæmons. But most of them had dogs because, and everyone knew this, they were dogs; loyal, obedient, and if need be, vicious.
Today was one of the last inspections Malik would have as a journeyman. He’d made his first kill years ago and would get to become a proper Assassin soon. Nishtar had settled but that wasn’t enough to be considered an ‘adult’ in Masyaf. You had to finish your training and Malik was so close. Hopefully today would be the last time he had to line up for inspection with the rest of his age mates. No one liked inspection. It was simply the worst part of the training.
The hall monitor came by and you stood outside your door with your dæmon by your side, or in easy view, and they made sure you were dressed properly and then reached out and touched your dæmon. If you flinched you were sent to contact training, if you didn’t you were left to your own devices until whatever normal training or lessons you had. Malik hated it. It always made him want to throw up and had since he was a boy. He wasn’t the only one. He had vivid memories all through his life of the other boys in his hall yelling or puking when their dæmons were touched by their hall monitor. One time a knife had been drawn. No attack had followed up on it but the fight trigger had been so strong. Malik had never puked thankfully but he’d been trained out of reacting when people touched his dæmon.
He stood with his roommate outside their room. Zain’s dæmon Basket (what a fucking stupid name for a dæmon) was also a dog but his looked more like a pharaoh hound mixed with some stringy pariah dog you’d see out in the wastes between civilization and it always trembled during inspection. Malik felt Nishtar look around his legs at Basket and he lightly tapped her side with his leg: don’t look at Basket.
‘He’s going to get himself in trouble,’ Nishtar said into his mind.
‘Not our problem,’ he thought back.
‘He’s so annoying when he fails inspection,’ she complained. ‘He’s going to fail this time I just know it. And then he’s going to climb onto the bed and cry.’
‘Not our problem,’ Malik thought as the hall monitor was drawing closer. Their own dæmon was a canaan dog too but was darker brown with a cream collar and saddle. Bistil stalked up and down the journeymen and novices being inspected today and like Nishtar he noticed how jittery Basket was today. Unlike Nishtar he didn’t care and just glared daggers at the shivering dæmon but moved on ahead of his person.
The hall monitor looked Malik over briefly and noted on his board that his uniform was satisfactory. Then he leaned down and gave Nishtar a rough but agreeable pet on the top of her head. She closed her eyes at the rough attention but didn’t flinch away. Malik didn’t flinch either and just stood there but his stomach was in an absolute knot. He was going to throw up if this went on much longer and he hadn’t had breakfast yet so it would just be bile and stomach acid. Worse was Nishtar was sympathetic to stuff like that so if Malik threw up his dæmon would too and everyone had the same vitriolic reaction listening to a dog throwing up.
It only lasted about five seconds but that was enough. Malik blinked when the hand was removed from Nishtar’s head but he didn’t breathe out yet. That was still a flinch. The hall monitor inspected Zain and Basket next.
Malik lurched away when the hall monitor went to pet Basket and as soon as he touched Basket’s head the dæmon lashed out to bite the hand. Before he could even do so, it happened so fast, Bistil was on top of him, jaws around Basket’s throat and Basket on the ground.
Every dæmon in the hall started barking like crazy and in the confined space it was so loud Malik was momentarily stunned.
The hall monitor pulled Bistil off of Basket who lay on the ground breathing hard, tongue lolling out of his mouth. He bled but not so much he’d bleed out and Malik reached out and put his hand on Nishtar’s head. She’d moved to stand between his legs protectively, barking furiously at Bistil, or maybe Basket. ‘I told you he’d fail! And he’s going to be so annoying,’ she said into his mind.
Bistil started barking back at the other dæmons and quickly everyone quieted. Everyone knew who was in charge and it was Bistil. Malik kept his hand on Nishtar anyway.
The hall monitor didn’t look too ruffled by the whole thing. Zain was knelt by his dæmon who was still just laying on the ground panting hard, eyes wide and wild. “Once you’ve cleaned up this mess make sure you go down to contact conditioning,” he told Zain.
“Yes, sir,” Zain said, not looking at him.
“Everyone back into positions,” the hall monitor snapped. “Your inspection is not over.” But Malik noted he wasn’t the only one who’d moved to have their dæmon stand or sit between their legs. Down the hall from the way the hall monitor had come Malik did see to some amusement Paul trying and failing to pull his completely puffed up cat dæmon off him.
‘Basket and Zain better get their act together,’ Nishtar said.
‘They’ll be fine,’ Malik said back but didn’t pet her despite wanting to. The hall monitor continued the rest of the inspection without incident and Malik was grateful when they were all released. He wanted to go get breakfast and properly settle his stomach after Nishtar had been touched.

No Place for Minorities in Pakistan
a group of Pakistani Dalits in Mirpurkhas amassed at their town hall these days. They vowed to initiate a movement to say their distinct political identity, and fight for his or her communities’ rights.
The word "Dalit" literally method "oppressed humans"; it's been in use because the 19th century to explain groups that fall out of doors of the 4-caste Hindu hierarchy. these "outcasts" or "untouchables" have been a problem to horrendous discrimination, in all spheres of life, for at least the past 2,000 years.
As political recognition in undivided India arose in the direction of the end of the British Raj, a number of Dalit leaders emerged to formulate and push forward their very own political needs.
most prolific amongst them changed into Dr. BR Ambedkar, who did no longer consider the upper-caste-ruled Congress with the political hobbies and aspirations of his communities. He made a sturdy case for separate citizens for Dalits in the 1930-32 round table meetings. The Muslim League had additionally made an equal demand for the center in their politics.
The Communal Award of 1932 familiar the positions of each, but Gandhi persuaded Ambedkar to comply with reserved seats for Dalits inside a joint voters system, instead of having Dalit voters select Dalit parliamentarians one by one.
The authorities of India Act, 1935 blanketed an agenda of castes that have been a situation of its precise clauses. The time period "Scheduled Castes" as a consequence changed "Dalits" in respectable parlance. In Pakistan, the authorities additionally notified forty castes as "Scheduled" via an ordinance in 1957, which protected Bheel, Kohli, and Menghwar.
Mandal’s elevation was perceived as a gesture toward Dalits, indicating that Muslim Pakistan would deal with them better than the caste-plagued Hindu Congress. This gesture proved brief-lived – and shortly changed into a story of betrayal.
Check the  minorities in Pakistan
In March 1949, a Dalit member of the primary Constituent assembly motioned to amend the objectives decision to encompass "Scheduled Castes" within the language which vowed to shield pastimes of minorities. Sardar Abdur Rab Nishtar defended the unique phrasing, arguing that specificity was not required; whether Muslim or Hindu, any marginalized network could be covered.
The modification changed into became down, which turned into a denial of the regular realities of our society, where oppression is encoded into the caste device.
It became glaring that Pakistan divides its populace into two organizations only – Muslims and non-Muslims – and that when it comes to sharing country sources and privileges, Muslims could benefit from their preferential fame on the price of non-Muslims.

Pakistan’s Sania Nishtar eliminated in vote for top WHO post
In the race to lead the UN’s public health body, Ethiopia’s Tedros Adhanom was elected as the new head of the powerful World Health Organization, beating out Britain’s David Nabarro and Sania Nishtar of Pakistan.
Dr. Sania Nishtar, a former federal minister and prominent global health leader with extensive experience in public healthcare, was among one of the three candidates that had been nominated for the post of director general WHO.
Jubilant supporters, including one waving an Ethiopian flag, surrounded 52-year-old malaria specialist Tedros Adhanom after the final result was announced in the assembly hall at the UN’s Geneva headquarters.
Tedros will take over on July 1, succeeding Margaret Chan, a Hong Kong native whose decade-long tenure was marred by the agency’s fiercely criticised response to the Ebola epidemic in west Africa.
In his first remarks as WHO’s director general-elect, Tedros vowed to “reclaim… trust from member states and from every citizen in the world”.
He said delivering universal healthcare, especially to the world’s most impoverished, would be his top priority.
In a speech before voting started, Tedros had said he refused “to accept that people should die because they are poor.”
