Taliban Can Become Model For The World If They Follow 'Real' Islamic Sharia: Mehbooba Mufti

Former Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti said on Wednesday if the Taliban follow 'real' Islamic Sharia in Afghanistan where rights for women, children and elderly people are specified, they can become an example for the world.

"Taliban are emerging as a reality. They must not rule Afghanistan like they did in their first term," she said.

"If they (Taliban) adopt that model, then only the countries of the world will do business with them. But if God forbid they follow the methods used by them in the nineties, it will be very difficult for Afghanistan and the rest of the world," she said.
