Pakistan Extends Deadline For Expulsion Of Afghan Refugees
In today's episode of India Global, Pakistan has postponed a deadline for hundreds of thousands of Afghans to return to their country due to Eid Al Fitr holidays marking the end of the holy month Ramadan. Meanwhile, 50 prominent Afghan women's rights activists sheltering in Pakistan face imminent deportation to Taliban-controlled Afghanistan, where they say they risk imprisonment or death. The Pakistani government has pledged to expel millions of undocumented Afghan nationals amid worsening relations with Kabul and a spike in cross-border militant attacks. Officials have described Afghan refugees as a threat to national security, labelling them "terrorists" and "traitors."
