Former president Hamid Karzai on the occasion of International Women’s Day once again called on the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan to reopen the doors of schools and universities for girls.

Karzai said in a statement that the future of Afghanistan depends on the solidarity and meaningful participation of both women and men in this land.

He stated that to achieve progress, evolution, and freedom from dependency, it is essential to pay serious attention to the education and job opportunities for women and to provide an environment for the growth and flourishing of the bright talents of girls in the country.

He said: “According to history, Afghan women have had a significant presence side by side with men in all developments and arenas, especially in the struggles for independence, and have established their role and position as responsible members of society.”

India’s government is expected to accept a top Islamic Emirate representative to the country soon, the latest step from New Delhi to improve ties with Kabul and counter China’s growing influence in Afghanistan, Bloomberg reported.

The IEA official won’t be recognized as a diplomat by India but will be the top representative for the government there. The IEA won’t be able to fly its flag at the embassy, at events or on official vehicles, according to Bloomberg.

Najib Shaheen, a diplomat in his early 30s at the Afghan embassy in Doha, is the main contender for the ambassador-level role in New Delhi. He has worked with the IEA for almost a decade, and is the son of the IEA’s ambassador to Qatar. Shawkat Ahmadzai, who works at the ministry of foreign affairs, is another candidate being considered for the role.

Only a handful of countries, including China, Pakistan and Russia, have accepted diplomats from the IEA, which seized power in Afghanistan in 2021.

India and Afghanistan agreed to resume bilateral trade after senior representatives from both sides met in Doha in January. The IEA also recently sent an administrator to Mumbai to serve as acting consul-general.
