With the rapidly changing developments and the current situation in Afghanistan, it seems that the Taliban has returned to power for a long time. In such a situation, the concerns of the countries of Central and South Asia regarding security are also increasing. All this is very challenging for India too.

Strategic affairs experts feel that the biggest challenge before India is whether it should recognize the rule of Taliban or not. By the way, opinion is also divided regarding this.

Some experts say that India should not show any haste at the moment because there has not been any significant change in the ideology of the Taliban. He was against the implementation of democracy even then and he is against democracy even now.

The Taliban want the country to run according to Sharia law.

In such a situation, the cleric will decide what will be the rights of the people in this process – especially women and minorities.

The way US-led NATO forces suddenly withdrew from Afghanistan and the way chaos spread throughout the country, diplomatic relations have also suffered a sudden setback.

This development also saw the rise of a new pole which includes China, Russia and Pakistan.

Since Iran’s relations with the US are also not good, it is also seen in favor of recognizing the Taliban. This is also a matter of great concern for India.

“Just be patient India”

India’s former Deputy National Security Advisor Arvind Gupta believes that India should act with patience till the water becomes stable. According to him, India is not going to gain anything from Taliban.

In the course of a conversation with the BBC, Gupta says, “The real face of the Taliban is familiar to everyone. The Taliban is still a ‘proclaimed extremist group’. Extremism and fundamentalism will continue to be a big problem because that thinking is not going to end anywhere. The Taliban’s interference with power will further develop jihadist thinking, the consequences of which have already been seen by the whole world. The ideology of Islamic State, ie ‘IS’, is still alive there.
