Congress leader Jayveer Shergill called on External Affairs Minister S. He wrote a letter to Jaishankar urging him to bring the Hindu and Sikh communities out of the violence-ridden Afghan nation.

Jayveer Shergill also shared the letter on Twitter. "I am writing this letter to the External Affairs Minister as a responsible citizen of the Sikh community," he wrote. My love for my community has compelled me to write about their questions. The Taliban are on the rise after the withdrawal of US troops from Afghanistan.
