The Taliban were forced to form a government in Afghanistan

(PTI) Kabul, Ta. 3

Within a fortnight of the withdrawal of American troops from Afghanistan, the Taliban, who have been occupying the entire country at gunpoint, have been stuck forming a new government. The Taliban have been in the process of forming a new government since the capture of Kabul on August 15 and the new government was due to be announced on Friday, but it has been postponed to Saturday and now to next week. It is unclear which groups the Taliban should include in the formation of a globally accepted inclusive administration in the formation of a new government. Taliban commanders, on the other hand, went into a frenzy of victory with claims of capturing Panjshir, killing 70 people in a shootout in the air for a celebration on Friday night. However, Ahmed Masood rejected the claim of occupation of Panjshir and announced that the Taliban would continue to oppose it.

The Taliban, which took control of Afghanistan last month, has postponed announcing the formation of a new government for the second day in a row. In the Taliban's Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan, under the Iranian regime, the religious head is believed to be Hibtullah Akhundzada Sarvesarva and the head of the government is Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar. But there has been a stalemate over the names of the new government and cabinet members.

The Taliban's exercise for global acceptance of the new government

The names of the new government and cabinet members will now be announced next week, Taliban spokesman Zabiullah Mujahid said on Saturday. He did not give a reason for the delay in forming the government. However, according to sources, the Taliban regime alone will not be accepted globally. As a result, discussions are underway with all parties, social groups and all sections of society to ensure proper representation to form an internationally accepted inclusive government.

The government will need educated Afghans to run: Haqqani

Khalil Haqqani, in-charge of security in Kabul, said the new government would include former Afghan Prime Minister Gulbuddin Hikmatyar and Hasmat Ghani Ahmadzai, the brother of fugitive President Ashraf Ghani. The Taliban are capable of securing the country, but need young, educated Afghans to run the government. Allegedly old politicians will be completely excluded in the new government.

Women's struggle for rights continues under Taliban rule

In Afghanistan, meanwhile, women are now taking to the streets against the Taliban for their rights. For the last few days, women have been protesting for the last 20 years to maintain their rights. Protests by women in Kabul on Saturday turned violent. Under the Taliban regime, women seeking women's rights in the political system were beaten by the Taliban. He fired teargas shells at women protesting in front of the Rashtrapati Bhavan. The Taliban has been opposing these demonstrations of women from the very beginning. According to some eyewitnesses, the Taliban also fired shots to disperse the women.

Claims against Ahmed Masood-Taliban over possession of Panjshir

The Taliban, meanwhile, claimed control of Panjshir, the only province not under their control in Afghanistan, and fired indiscriminately into the air on Friday night to celebrate the victory, killing 70 people, including children, and injuring 31 others. However, the Resistance Force, led by Ahmed Masood and Amarullah Saleh, denied the Taliban's claim and said the Taliban had not been able to take control of Panjshir. They will continue to oppose them. On the other hand, late on Saturday night, there were reports that the Taliban had taken over the Governor's House in Panjshir and the whole of Afghanistan.
