India welcomed the Taliban regime’s recent move to restore property rights to Afghan Hindus and Sikhs calling it a positive development.

The Taliban regime has reportedly set up a commission to ensure return to owners the rights of private land which were seized by warlords during the tenure of the previous dispensation in Kabul.

Taliban authorities were reported to be working to restore private land to Hindu and Sikh minorities, reclaiming these properties from those linked to the previous West-backed regime.
