Afghanistan’s Army chief to visit India

In between heightened tensions due to the Taliban gaining several territories in the country, Afghanistan’s Army chief General Wali Mohammad Ahmadzai will visit India in the last week of July to have discussions with top officials in the security and defence establishment.

His visit to India assumes significance as the Taliban is gaining dominance over the vast territories of Afghanistan in the wake of the US and the NATO forces withdrawing from the nation.

A senior minister in the Afghanistan government was also about to visit India to discuss with the Indian Army Chief General MM Naravane, but his visit has been postponed .
