      Afghan embassy in Delhi to cease operations from Oct. 1

      The embassy also said a failure to meet expectations in serving Afghanistan's interests is another key factor in shutting of the embassy.

India does not recognise the Taliban government, and closed its own embassy in Kabul after the Taliban took control in 2021, but New Delhi had allowed the ambassador and mission staff appointed by the Western-backed government of ousted Afghan President Ashraf Ghani to issue visas and handle trade matters.

The summer rainfall deficit could make staples such as sugar, pulses, rice and vegetables more expensive and lift overall food inflation.
