"India Needs To Quickly Re-Evaluate": RSS's Ram Madhav On Afghanistan
Ram Madhav, a senior member of the BJP's ideological parent Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), on Sunday said India needed to re-evaluate its stance in Afghanistan amid reports that President Ashraf Ghani was on the verge of quitting and the Taliban had entered capital
Taliban terrorists entered Afghanistan's capital Kabul on Sunday, an interior ministry official said, as the United States evacuated diplomats from its embassy by helicopter.
The senior official told Reuters the Taliban were coming in "from all sides" but gave no further details.
There were no reports of fighting. Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid said in a statement that the group was in talks with the government for a peaceful surrender of Kabul.
The entry into the capital caps a lightning advance by the Islamist militants, who were ousted 20 years ago by the United States after the Sept. 11 attacks. The collapse of the Afghan government defence has stunned diplomats - just last week, a U.S. intelligence estimate
