The Taliban's forces are said to have raided the closed Indian consulates in Kandahar and Herat provinces of Afghanistan on Wednesday (18 August), while no details are available about what is happening with the consulate and the Embassy in Jalalabad and Kabul respectively, reports Hindustan Times.
During the raids, the Taliban's personnel searched for papers and eventually also took away the parked vehicles from both the embassies.
Meanwhile, the power struggle continues in the war-torn country where the Taliban has usurped authority after a gap of over two decades from when the United States (US) led forces had landed in the country and thrown the terrorist outfit out of power.
Negotiations are presently on to get former president Hamid Karzai and Chairman HCNR Abdullah Abdullah to formally hand over power to the Taliban leader Mullah Abdul Ghani Barader in the Presidential Palace in a staged event.
Introducing ElectionsHQ + 50 Ground Reports Project
The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
