The Ministry of External Affairs is receiving communication from the Kabul embassy on a regular basis.
With Taliban coming to power in Afghanistan, many countries called their embassy staff back and shut their operations in Kabul. With normalcy in daily affairs slowly returning, some such offices have started functioning. This becomes even more important with the dangers still looming large over foreigners in Afghanistan. The Indian embassy in Kabul is currently safe and operational, said an official, adding that the Government of India has also disbursed the salary of local employees on time. "Maintenance charges and the salaries of local staff in the Indian embassy in Kabul is being given on time by the Government of India," a top government official told ANI. The Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) is also receiving communication from the Kabul embassy regularly and it was ensured by the staff that the embassy was also secure. The report suggests that banks in Kabul are not operational fully due to ongoing tension, therefore, the embassy staff may face trouble in withdrawing the money.More Related News
