India says Afghanistan NDS accord with Pakistan ISI will be implemented when Afghan people show satisfaction.

It has been said that an accord between Afghanistan National Directorate Security (NDS) and Pakistan Inter-Service Intelligence (ISI) has been signed on intelligence sharing and coordinated operations; a move criticized by Afghan lawmakers who said the pact will provide no benefits to Kabul.

The MoU between NDS and ISI faced vehement criticism from inside and outside the country.

However, Afghanistan’s spy agency said the recent accord signed with Pakistan’s ISI for sharing of intelligence and coordinated operations was “not practical” and the deal will be reviewed by a panel of experts.

The National Directorate of Security (NDS) said the recent memorandum of understanding signed with Pakistan’s Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) was not practical and that it will come under review by a panel of experts who will report directly to President Ashraf Ghani.
India’s ambassador to Afghanistan, Amar Sinha said that he hopes that Pakistan’s efforts in bringing peace to Afghanistan may have changed, however evidences suggest that Pakistan was never honest with Afghanistan.

Following an intelligence treaty signed between Afghanistan and Pakistan, India’s ambassador declared that as an independent country, Afghanistan has the right to decide on its relations with other countries.

Sinha is said to consider targeting Indian citizenships in Afghanistan are the plans of Haqqani network.
He noted that the war against terrorism in Afghanistan can only be successful when the neighboring countries honestly cooperate with Afghanistan.

Although relations have improved since Afghan president Ashraf Ghani assumed power last September, Pakistan and Afghanistan have long accused each other of sheltering militants.

Both sides have toned down their rhetoric in recent months, and president Ghani has sought to reassure Pakistan that Kabul is not working with its archrival India to undermine its interests.

Afghan sources have said that the accord does not need any confirmation or denies by the national Security Council.

The two intelligence agencies would cooperate in counter- terrorism operations, including joint probe of the terrorism suspects, reports said.

Afghan officials have frequently accused Pakistan of harbouring and nurturing Taliban militants.

Sanaullah Ghaffari, also known as Shahab al-Muhajar, is reportedly the ISIS-Khorasan (Daesh) branch leader and is holed up in Pakistan, Reuters reports.

The 29-year-old took over as leader in 2020 and under his leadership the group has carried out extreme attacks as a means of recruiting, Reuters reported.

Reuters noted that little was known about Ghafari before the deadly 2021 ISIS attack on Kabul Airport, which killed 170 Afghan civilians and 13 American soldiers.

But after Friday’s deadly attack in a concert hall in Moscow, which left 139 people dead, Ghaffari’s group has come under intense scrutiny.

Reuters reports that Ghaffari is said to have been involved in several attacks in Afghanistan, Iran, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan and Pakistan.

Pakistani officials said months ago that Ghaffari had been killed in Kunar province in Afghanistan in June last year, but Reuters has reported that he did not die and instead fled to Pakistan and lives in the border province of Baluchistan.

Abdul Matin Qani, the spokesman of the Ministry of Interior of Afghanistan, says that Daesh has been suppressed in Afghanistan for more than two years and has lost its operational capacity.

The last attack carried out by Daesh in Afghanistan was the attack on the Kabul Bank office in Kandahar last week which left three dead and 12 wounded.

IPL: Sunrisers thump MI in record breaking match

(Last Updated On: March 28, 2024)

It was raining records at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad on Wednesday with the hosts Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) clinching a 31-run victory over Mumbai Indians (MI) in Match 8 of the Tata Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024.

Sunrisers’ batting rewrote the record books on a batting belter after the posted 277 for three.

SRH now have the highest team score in the history of the IPL – beating Royal Challengers Bangalore’s (RCB) 263 for five from the 2013 season.

In reply, MI made a spirited effort, and at one stage, were contenders to do the near impossible. In the slog overs, the enormity of the target proved a bit too much, and SRH clinched victory, but not without numerous nervous moments.

To put into perspective the carnage we witnessed – Heinrich Klaasen’s 23-ball half-century was the slowest fifty of the SRH innings.

Travis Head, playing his first match for SRH, raced to the milestone in 18 balls. Abhishek Sharma got there even faster – in 16 balls – to record the quickest fifty by an SRH batter in IPL history.

While Sunrisers notched up the highest total in the 16-year history of the IPL, just as incredibly, Mumbai Indians almost paid them back with the same coin, their batters coming out with a nothing-to-lose attitude.

The sixes kept rolling off the Mumbai bats too, helping them keep up with the asking rate for most of the chase, eventually however, they ran out of steam and finished on 246 for 5, the highest IPL total in a losing cause.

As ESPNcricinfo reported, never were more runs scored in a men’s T20 match (523). Never were most sixes hit in a men’s T20 (38). At the end of the close to four-hour six-fest, only two bowlers returned with an economy rate of under ten an over.

Thursday, March 28 : Match 9

Thursday’s match at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur sees Rajasthan Royals go up against Delhi Capitals.

Fans in Afghanistan can tune in to Ariana Television to watch the match live from 6.30pm. Alternatively the match can be screened live on arianatelevision.com
