Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam Chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman landed in Afghan capital Kabul on Sunday afternoon, reported 24NewsHD TV channel.
Maulana Fazlur Rehman has proceeded to Afghanistan on the head of a 12-member delegation.
The JUI chief will meet top officials of the Afghanistan Emirate of Islamia. He will consult on the peace and order situation between the two countries and will also discuss the matter of the presence of Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) and other organizations in Afghanistan.
Maulana Fazl is starting his week-long visit today at the invitation of the Afghan government.
Talking to a private TV channel the other day, the Maulana said that he has got the full mandate of the Government of Pakistan to visit Afghanistan.
He said that he was in favour of dialogue, but as far as negotiations with the TTP are concerned, a comprehensive strategy could be evolved only after seeing the ground realities.
It should be noted that on December 16, 2023, Sardar Ahmad Jan Shakib, Afghanistan's interim ambassador to Pakistan, met Maulana Fazlur Rehman and invited him to visit Kabul.
The invitation was also confirmed by Afghan government spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid.
