Afghan Foreign Minister Amir Khan Muttaqi India’s visit, a press conference and then uproar…. Know the whole issue

Amir Khan Muttaqi press conference: A press conference by Afghan Foreign Minister Amir Khan Muttaqi has raised political heat in India. Muttaqi held a press conference in New Delhi on Friday, to which female journalists were not invited. This incident occurred hours after his conversation with External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar.

It is believed that the decision to invite journalists was made by Taliban officials, although the Indian side had suggested including female journalists. The Indian government has stated that the Indian Ministry of External Affairs had no involvement in the press conference held in Delhi by the Afghan Foreign Minister.

The Taliban regime has been accused of restricting women’s rights in Afghanistan, and Muttaqi avoided a direct question on the status of women, saying that every country has its own customs. The issue has raised political heat in the country.

Opposition questions PM

Priyanka Gandhi wrote on the social media platform X, “Prime Minister Narendra Modi, please clarify why women journalists were removed from the press conference of the Taliban representative who visited India. If your talk about women’s rights isn’t just election-time posturing, then how was this humiliation of some of the country’s most capable women allowed to happen in our country? This is the same country where women are the backbone and pride.”
