taliban hindu sikh property : The ruling Taliban in Afghanistan has shocked the world by making a pleasant surprise for the country's minority community.
Taliban has decided to return the lands of Hindus and Sikhs living in Afghanistan. These are lands that the Taliban claim were seized during the rule of the previous US-backed Afghan government. Taliban officials have started implementing this decision and have also started the process of taking back the lands. Taliban's decision is also being seen as a success for India's foreign policy.
According to the report of an English newspaper of the country, Taliban has taken the initiative to end the injustice being done to minorities. A Taliban government official said, 'We know that minorities in the country have been marginalized and displaced for a long time. We are working to get them their rights back.
Meanwhile, Narendra Singh Khalsa, the leader representing Hindus and Sikhs in Afghanistan, has also returned to Kabul from Canada and Indian officials believe this is a positive sign for minorities in Afghanistan.
A Taliban spokesman said, 'A commission has been formed to return the lands confiscated from minorities under the previous government. He has also welcomed the return of leader Narendra Singh Khalsa, who was a member of the earlier dissolved Afghan Parliament.
When the Taliban took power in Afghanistan, a large number of Sikhs and Hindus left the country. Narendra Singh Khalsa also first came to India with the help of the Indian Government and went from India to Canada. Currently Hindus and Sikhs constitute one percent of the total population of Afghanistan.
