Afghanistan: Afghan students protest outside Indian Embassy

KABUL, 07 May 2022, (TON): Hundreds of Afghan students staged a protest in front of the Indian Embassy in Kabul and requested the Indian government to issue electronic visas for them to allow them to continue their education.

With the Taliban takeover in Afghanistan, Afghan students enrolled in Indian universities still await the issuance of visas so that they can return to India.

 More than 2,500 students from different parts of Afghanistan are unable to join offline classes at Indian colleges and universities.

The students have urged the Indian government to expedite the issuance of visas to those students who are in Afghanistan. Taliban fighters entered the capital Kabul on August 15, 2021, and the Afghan government collapsed.
