Delhi/Hyderabad, Oct 9 (Maxim News): Afghan Foreign Minister Amir Khan Muttakhi Qadri arrived in India today. This is Amir Khan’s first official visit to India. He will be in India for a week to discuss bilateral relations and several regional issues.
The Indian Ministry of External Affairs has given a grand welcome to Amir Khan who arrived in the national capital Delhi. A statement was issued to this effect on the social media platform ‘X’. It has been said that discussion will be held on diplomatic relations between the two countries and regional issues. During this visit, Afghan Foreign Minister Amir Khan Muttakhi will meet Indian External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar and National Security Advisor Ajit Doyal.
Although the visit was scheduled to take place earlier, it was postponed after Amir Khan Muttakhi was not granted an exemption from the travel ban imposed by the United Nations Security Council (UNSC). Recently, the UNSC committee granted a special exemption for Muttakhi’s travel, paving the way for his visit. External Affairs Ministry spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal told the media.
It is expected that the two sides will discuss India’s humanitarian assistance and infrastructure projects in Afghanistan during the meetings. Jaiswal said that India responded immediately when an earthquake struck Afghanistan and sent relief materials. Muttakhi’s visit assumes significance in the context of increasing diplomatic dialogue between the two countries in recent times. Last January, Indian Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri met Afghan Foreign Minister Amir Khan Muttakhi. (Maxim News)
