It has been learnt through credible online sources that Engineer Mohammad Khan, the 1st Advisor
and a close friend of Afghan Chief Executive Abdullah Abdullah has been arrested by Afghan
forces/agencies for alleged links with the Islamic State group also known as Daish, ISIS or ISIL.
Information strongly suggests that Daish has penetrated even in high ranking Afghan
government officials as well.
In this regard, it is notable that Ajit Doval, the ex-spymaster who is now National Security
Advisor of Indian Prime Minister Narendra is the real author and controller of India’s offensive-
As part of its offensive-defensive doctrine, India is destabilizing Afghanistan—all regional
states, while its major focus has always been towards Pakistan, a policy of weakening Pakistan.
Waging a prolonged war in Afghanistan, the US and other NATO countries have realized that
after the withdrawal of foreign troops, Afghanistan would be thrown in an era of uncertainly and
civil war. They recognize the fact and terrorism or stability in Pakistan and Afghanistan is
interrelated. Therefore, US-led developed nations which also spent billions of dollars for the
development of Afghanistan have repeatedly agreed that without Islamabad’s help, stability
cannot be achieved there. Unfortunately, India does not intend see peace in that country and is
undermining regional stability by creating unrest in Afghanistan and some other countries, and
by sabotaging their cordial relations.
As regards Afghanistan, India is playing a double game in accordance with the offensive-
defensive doctrine of Ajit Doval. RAW has well-established its network in Afghanistan and is in
connivance with the Tehreek-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) and Daish). On January 13, 2015, at least
seven personal of the Afghan security forces died during the suicide attack which targeted the
Pakistani consulate in Jalalabad. ISIS claimed responsibility for the terror assault.
The attack which coincided with efforts to restart the stalled peace process with Taliban
insurgents and ease diplomatic tensions between India and Pakistan, added a dangerous new
element to Afghanistan’s volatile security mix. In this context, delegates from Afghanistan,
Pakistan, China and the United States had met to try to resurrect efforts to end nearly 15 years of
bloodshed in Afghanistan.
In this respect, in the recent past, cordial relations were established between Pakistan and
Afghanistan when Afghan President Ashraf Ghani had realized that Afghanistan and Pakistan
were facing similar challenges of terrorism and would combat this threat collectively.
While, it is misfortune that on direction of New Delhi and like the former regime of Afghan
President Hamid Karzai, Afghanistan’s present rulers have also started accusing Pakistan of
cross-border terrorism. In this connection, after hours of the Taliban captured Kunduz city, on
September 28, 2015, during his address to the UNO General Assembly, Afghanistan’s Chief
Executive Abdullah Abdullah blamed Islamabad for carrying out cross-border attacks and
destabilizing Afghanistan.
Differences exist between Chief Executive Abdullah Abdullah and President Ashraf Ghani, as
the former wants cordial relations with New Delhi at the cost of Afghanistan and the latter
It is mentionable that on December 10, 2016, President Ghani accepted the resignation of
Rahmatullah Nabil as director of the Afghan intelligence agency, National Directorate of
Security (NDS), after developing differences of the spymaster with him over Ghani’s move to
attend the regional conference in Islamabad.
And Prime Minister Sharif and President Ghani also showed their determination that their
countries would cooperate in fighting the threat of ISIS.
The US is also playing double game with Pakistan, because it is the only nuclear country in the
Islamic World, which irritates America and Israel. Hence, secret agents of American CIA, Israeli
Mossad and Indian RAW which are well-penetrated in Daish are making efforts to weaken
Tibetan regions of China, Iran and especially Pakistan’s province of Balochistan by arranging the
subversive activities, promoting acrimonious sense of dissent, political volatility, sectarian
violence and arousing sentiments of separatism. In this regard, the China-Pakistan Economic
Corridor (CPEC) is their special target.
Again, in case of Afghanistan, there are several groups of Al-Qaeda, Daesh and Taliban like the
TTP. Some of them are being used by secret agencies like CIA, Mossad and RAW to obtain the
collective and individual designs of their countries against Pakistan and Middle Eastern
countries. India and Israel which want to prolong the stay of the US-led NATO troops in
Afghanistan which have become the center of covert activities, are exploiting their dual policy,
especially of America against Pakistan, China and Iran.
Particularly, terrorists of Daish and TTP which are strategic assets of the CIA, RAW and Mossad have claimed responsibility for several terror attacks inside Pakistan, including the recent ones in Lahore, Balochistan, Karachi and in In fact, in collusion with Afghanistan’s NDS, especially, RAW has set up its secret network in Afghanistan, and is fully assisting cross-border incursions and terror-activities in various regions of Pakistan through Baloch separatist elements and anti-Pakistan groups like Baluchistan Liberation Army (BLA), Jundullah (God’s soldiers) and TTP.
It is an undeniable fact that Ajit Doval’s cronies are creating law and order problems in
Afghanistan. Particularly, Indian nexus with Daish and TTP leaders like Hakimullah Masood and
Mulla Fazalullah has been proved by the recent revelation of the TTP militant Latifullah
Mahsood regarding the incident of Army Public School Peshawar and exploitation of Baloch
sub-nationalists. It has also exposed Ajeet Doval’s offensive-defensive doctrine—anti-Pakistan
statements of India’s BJP leadership, while pointing out that New Delhi is the main spoiler of
peace in Afghanistan, and is still manipulating the militants of Daish, TTP,, East Turkestan
Islamic Movement (ETIM) etc. against Pakistan, China and Afghanistan.
Notably, with the start of 2016, frequency of terrorist incidents has increased manifold in
Afghanistan, indicating the frustration of the spoiler (India), after her proxies were uprooted
from Pakistani soil. Moreover, Afghan people also feel wary of protracted proxy warfare, strife
and lawlessness in their country and are desirous for peace. But, New Delhi does not want it.
Besides, Indian high officials and media have always shifted the blame game of Afghanistan’s
unrest towards Pakistan. It is a true reflection of Indian establishment which is intolerant to any
improvement in the bilateral relations between both Pakistan and Afghanistan.
Nevertheless, if not checked in time by the US-led western powers, India’s offensive-defensive
doctrine will destabilize Pakistan and Afghanistan including the whole region, jeopardizing the
political and economic interests of America and NATO countries which demand stability and
peace in the region, particularly in Afghanistan and Pakistan. They must also abandon their
