A source familiar with India's position told ANI that discussions on Afghanistan has two aspects - one is the security threat emanating from the country and the other is the humanitarian food crisis and drought-like situation staring the country.
Pakistan spy agency ISI's role in propping up Haqqanis in the Afghan power structure and increased activities of Pakistan-backed UN proscribed terror groups like Lashkar-e-Toiba, Jaish-e-Mohammed and also increased role of ISK (Islamic State-Khorasan) in the region has heightened security threat in the region in general and for neighbouring countries like India in particular.
