Nobel Peace Prize winner Malala Yousafzai's blood-stained school uniform which she wore on the day she was attacked by Tehreek-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) militants in October 2012 is set to go on display at the Nobel Peace Prize exhibition 2014 in Oslo, Norway.

Yousafzai donated her school uniform to the Nobel Peace Centre saying that it signified her right to go to school and to avail education. She said that it was an important part of her life and that she would want to show it to people all around the world, reported the Dawn.

The Pakistani activist was attacked by masked gunmen on a school bus in Swat Valley as a punishment for a blog that she wrote for BBC Urdu to oppose Taliban's attempts to deny women an education in areas controlled by it.

She was declared the winner of the 2014 Nobel Peace Prize, along with Indian child rights activist Kailash Satyarthi, for her struggle for children's right to education.
