Taliban allegedly removes Sikh religious flag from Gurdwara in Afghanistan: Qatar Envoy in Delhi
New Delhi: The Taliban has allegedly removed Nishan Sahib, a Sikh religious flag, from a Gurdwara in the Paktia province in eastern Afghanistan.
"We condemn this act and reiterate India’s firm belief that Afghanistan’s future must be one where the interests of all sections of Afghan society including minorities and women are protected," the source said.
Sikhs have been targeted by radical elements in Afghanistan earlier also.
In June 2020, Nidan Singh Sachdeva, a leader of the Hindu and Sikh community in Afghanistan was abducted allegedly by the Taliban from a Gurdwara.
Qatar Envoy:
Both sides exchanged views on the current situation in Afghanistan and recent developments in the Afghan peace process.
The visiting dignitary is likely to call on Foreign Secretary Harsh V Shringla and External Affairs Minister Dr S Jaishankar on Saturday, August 7.
