Abstract
People both in and out of Pakistan perceive Peshawar and people from there in a
negative way. The negative image of Pukhtoon/Pashtuns has especially acquired
newer and more derogatory nuances in the wake of the post-9/11 activities in
Pakistan. People think of Pukhtoons as a barbaric people who know nothing
about Gender issues or Human Rights. As such the lighter, creative and aesthetic
aspects of Pukhtoons remain not only concealed but absolutely unacknowledged.
