- Afghan President has opened a four-day Loya Jirga or grand assembly with a large number of delegates seeking to agree on a common approach to peace talks with the Taliban.
- A Loya Jirga is an ancient Afghan tradition that has been convened at times of national crisis or to settle major disputes.The loya jirga is being held now as U.S. and Taliban are discussing a possible foreign troop withdrawal from Afghanistan in exchange for a permanent ceasefire and various Taliban pledges.
- However,opposition political leaders and government critics are boycotting the assembly accusing Afghan President of using it as a platform to boost his status as leader in an election year.
- Afghan President had also invited the Taliban to the Loya Jirga but they have urged people to boycott it,denouncing it as an attempt by the US backed government to deceive the country and extend what the Taliban see as an illegitimate rule.
- Further,U.S and Taliban officials had also held several rounds of talks aimed at ensuring a safe exit for U.S. forces in return for a Taliban guarantee that Afghanistan will not be used by militants to threaten the rest of the world.
