New Delhi ambassadors are welcomed back by the Taliban.

The Taliban have welcomed the reopening of the Indian Embassy with the deployment of a technical team that reached Kabul on Thursday.

The Taliban statement said that "the return of Indian diplomats to Afghanistan and the reopening of the embassy demonstrates that security has been established in the country and all political and diplomatic rights are respected."

Despite a terrorist attack on a Kabul gurdwara a few days back, India utilised the opening offered by the massive earthquake in eastern Afghanistan to provide humanitarian aid by re-establishing a presence in Kabul.

India resumed its diplomatic presence in Kabul as it deployed a team to its embassy in the Afghan capital, over 10 months after it pulled out its officials from the mission following the Taliban’s capture of power. The reopening of the embassy came three weeks after a team led by JP Singh, MEA’s Joint Secretary for Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Iran, visited Kabul and met acting Foreign Minister Mawlawi Amir Khan Muttaqi.
