India: India sends two tons of medicines to Kabul’s Indira Gandhi Hospital

NEW DELHI, 08 December 2022, (TON): India delivered two tons of medicines to Afghanistan, although it has not officially recognized its Taliban government.

Indian External Affairs Ministry spokesperson Arindam Bagchi said “the medicine was given to Kabul’s Indira Gandhi Hospital, which was set up with Indian assistance in 2004.”

India also announced that it will provide 50,000 tons of wheat to Afghanistan to ease food shortages there and is working out details of the shipment with Pakistan’s government.

Since the chaotic Taliban takeover of Kabul, an already war-devastated Afghan economy once kept alive by international donations is on the verge of collapse.
