In a bid to enhance agricultural collaboration, Afghanistan's Minister of Agriculture, Irrigation, and Livestock, Mawlawi Attaullah Omari, has acknowledged India's warm reception and their shared commitment to modernization. Speaking at a session hosted by the PHDCCI, Omari emphasized the pivotal role of agriculture in Afghanistan.

Omari remarked on his strong connection to India, describing the hospitality as a hopeful sign for the Afghan population.
