In Afghanistan, the Taliban has stopped issuing driver’s licences to women

According to Afghan media reports, the Taliban regime in Afghanistan has stopped issuing driving licences to women and other provinces of the landlocked country.

Women could be seen driving in some of Afghanistan’s major cities, including Kabul, before the Taliban took control. This restriction has now been imposed by the regime.

Since the Taliban retook power in Afghanistan last year, the country’s human rights situation has deteriorated. Women’s rights have been snatched away by the new government, with reports ranging from banning girls from schools above sixth grade to not allowing women to travel alone.

Since capturing Afghanistan, the Taliban has imposed a number of restrictions on women.

On March 23, the Taliban regime closed secondary schools for girls across the country, just hours after reopening them for the first time since the new regime took power. The Taliban allowed some schools for girls up to class 6 to reopen just a month after taking power in 2021. The United Nations reacted angrily to the move. “Security Council members reaffirmed the right to education for all Afghans, including girls, and called on the Taliban to respect the right to education and honour their commitments to reopen schools for all female students without further delay,” the UN Security Council said. The Taliban’s Ministry of Education (MoE) has stated that the Islamic Emirate is close to reaching an agreement to reopen the school.

The Taliban administration barred women from working in government offices, banks, media companies, and other workplaces just a month after taking power. Waheedullah Hashimi, a Taliban high-ranking official, stated that the regime will fully implement sharia law, but that women should not work alongside men.

In December of last year, the Taliban issued a decree stating that women who wish to travel longer distances must be escorted by a close male relative. In addition, the regime demanded that vehicle owners only provide rides to women who wore hijabs.

Before the T20 World Cup, Yuzvendra Chahal said, “Pakistan has a good squad, however…”

Before the T20 World Cup, Yuzvendra Chahal said, “Pakistan has a good squad, however…”

Team India has already started preparing for the T20 World Cup, which starts on October 16, after finishing the T20 International matches against South Africa. The Men in Blue played a warm-up game against Western Australia and will play one more game before opening their campaign on October 23 against Pakistan in Melbourne.

The same thing was done by Team India in the last competition, which resulted in a difficult 10-wicket loss for the Men in Blue to Babar Azam and his team. Although Pakistan boasts of an equally outstanding line-up group, the fans are expecting for a change in fate with a new captain and coach.

Yuzvendra Chahal, who will participate in his maiden T20 World Cup match, discussed the contest and noted that having already faced Pakistan, he won’t feel much pressure. The spinner said in an exclusive interview with Dainik Jagran that when you’ve faced a specific opponent before, you don’t worry as much the second time around.

Prior to the match versus Pakistan, the media and internet have created a lot of excitement. However, for those of us who play cricket, this is just another game, and the pressure increases if we feel it. I use the internet pretty frequently, but I don’t allow myself to be disturbed by what is said online.

He also praised Pakistan as a strong squad, but he added that the team’s primary emphasis is on its performance. “Pakistan is a good team, but the only thing that matters is how we play. Everything depends on how you play on game day, therefore that is the most crucial factor, he continued.

Team India’s total in the match against Pakistan last year was 151/7 after 20 overs. With the exception of Virat Kohli, the Pakistani pace attack, led by Shaheen Shah Afridi, destroyed the top order. In response, Babar Azam and Mohammed Rizwan successfully defended the goal with 13 extra balls. Since then, India and Pakistan have faced off twice, with each team earning a victory. This time around, it’s still unclear if Afridi would participate in the competition.

As the anticipation for the T20 World Cup builds, Indian spinner Yuzvendra Chahal shared his thoughts on Pakistan’s team, sparking conversations among fans and cricket enthusiasts. Speaking candidly in an interview, Chahal acknowledged Pakistan’s strong squad, saying, “Pakistan has a good squad, however, the game depends on how you perform on the day.”

Chahal emphasized that while talent and team composition matter, cricket is unpredictable, and key matches often hinge on who handles pressure better. He noted that Pakistan has several match-winners, but consistency and execution will play a crucial role in their campaign. “It’s not just about individual brilliance,” he said, “but how the entire team comes together in crunch situations.”

The spinner also spoke about India’s preparations for the tournament, highlighting the team’s focus on building momentum and working on strategies tailored to different opponents. He expressed confidence in India’s squad, saying they have a balanced team capable of adapting to varying conditions. “We’ve learned from past games and are working to minimize errors,” he added.

Chahal’s remarks reflect the mutual respect between cricketing nations while acknowledging the high stakes of the World Cup. His level-headed approach underscores the importance of staying focused amidst the hype surrounding marquee clashes like India vs. Pakistan. Fans eagerly await the electrifying encounters ahead, hoping for thrilling performances and Rizwan successfully defended the goal to unforgettable moments.
