TIL Desk/National/New Delhi/ A day after devastating bombings outside the Kabul airport killed over 100 people, India on Friday said its primary focus is to bring back the remaining Indians from the Afghan capital even as it indicated adopting a cautious approach in recognising any new regime in Afghanistan in view of “lack of clarity” on government formation.
Around 20 Indians and over 100 Afghan nationals could not reach the Kabul airport on Wednesday to board an evacuation flight to India reportedly because of the precarious security scenario and multiple check-posts put up by the Taliban. Bagchi said India is in touch with “various parties” to mount more evacuation flights to bring back Indians.
When specifically asked whether India will recognise a Taliban regime, Bagchi replied: “I think we are jumping the gun.” “The situation on the ground is uncertain. The prime concern at present is the security and safety of the people. Currently, there is a lack of clarity or no clarity about any entity forming a government in Kabul. So, I think we are jumping the gun here regarding the recognition,” Bagchi said.
