Kabul, September 29:

The Taliban has written to the DGCA, or Directorate General of Civil Aviation, asking for resumption of commercial flights between India and Afghanistan (Kabul).

A letter from the hardline group has been received by the Indian government and is under review by the Civil Aviation Ministry.

India had stopped all commercial flight operations to Kabul after August 15, when the Taliban swept into the Afghan capital and took effective control of the war-torn country.
