Kasargod, Aug 25: Kerala unit of Popular Front of India (PFI) has said that it is confident about the fact that the Taliban, which resisted American forces in Afghanistan, will provide good administration in Afghanistan.
It noted that similar resistances had also been witnessed against the American forces in Vietnam and Bolivia.
"We should not view the Taliban with prejudice. If Pakistan has to be kept away from Afghanistan, India should establish diplomatic relationship with the Taliban, said PFI leader and national executive committee member, Parappurathu Koya, as reported by a news channel.
It may be recalled, the Taliban, a militant group that ran the country in the late 1990s, took control of Afghanistan yet again. The US-led invasion of Afghanistan in 2001 ousted the insurgents from power, but they never left. After they blitzed across the country in recent days, the Western-backed government that has run the country for 20 years collapsed. Afghans, fearing for the future, are trying to leave the country.
