The US has started withdrawal of its Army from Afghanistan and at the same time, the Taliban have begun their lightning offensive activities across the surrounding and neighbouring regions. This changing dynamics is forcing the Taliban to draw their attention towards India through Pakistan’s ISI.
While the Taliban do not have any extrinsic expressions about India, intrinsically Pakistan tries to promote anti-India elements within the Taliban. Many Taliban members in person express their hatred of Pakistan and show their frustration because they have to depend on Pakistan for their war effort. But certain elements within the Taliban such as the Haqqani Network are very closely linked with the ISI and are very anti-India. The Haqqani Network is the segment of the Taliban that Pakistan has used time after time to attack Indian Embassy in Afghanistan.
