India Afghanistan | BJP Faces Criticism Over Taliban Press Conference Without Women Journalists
The exclusion of women journalists from the Taliban Foreign Minister’s press conference has triggered a political storm in India. Opposition leaders, including Rahul Gandhi, Priyanka Gandhi, Dimple Yadav, and Shiv Sena MP Priyanka Chaturvedi, criticized the Modi government for showing respect to the Taliban, an organization known for its anti-women stance, while failing to raise concerns about women journalists being barred from attending. The MEA clarified that it had no role in organizing the press meet.
