Mullah Ghani Baradar

Time magazine 2021 has released its list of the 100 most influential people in the world. It also includes a name that has surprised everyone. Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar, the deputy prime minister in the new Taliban government and top figure in the Doha talks, has been included in Time magazine’s list of the 100 most influential people. Mullah Baradar led the Taliban in talks with the US during the peace deal.

Baradar was the key face of the Taliban when US Special Representative for Afghan Reconciliation Zalmay Khalilzad officially signed the peace deal in Doha in February 2020. Time magazine introduced Baradar as a quiet, mysterious person who rarely makes public statements or interviews. It said Mullah Baradar took all major decisions, including pardoning members of the former regime, preventing bloodshed when the Taliban entered Kabul, and contacts and visits with neighboring China and Pakistan.

Baradar was arrested in Pakistan by the country’s security forces in 2010 and released in 2018, after the US stepped up efforts to leave Afghanistan. However, despite being a co-founder of the Taliban and playing a top role in negotiations with the US, it is believed that Baradar has been given a relatively low position in the caretaker government.

However, there were reports of the death of Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan’s deputy PM after the fight over seat of power in Afghanistan. Taliban government then put out an audio message confirming he was alive and not injured. In the clip, Baradar said that there had been news about his death but he is still alive and is safe wherever he is.

Jammu and Kashmir National Conference leader Farooq Abdullah responded to Union Defence Minister Rajnath Singh’s remark, PoK will be merged with India, and said on Sunday that Pakistan is not wearing bangles and also has atom bombs that will fall on the people of Jammu and Kashmir. He said if the defence minister is saying it, then India should go ahead.

The National conference leader added nobody is stopping the defence minister from doing so. But he warned that the Indian government must remember that Pakistan is also not wearing bangles.  He added that the neighbouring country has atom bombs, and unfortunately, that atom bomb will fall on the people of Jammu and Kashmir.

Earlier the Defence Minister Rajnath Singh said that seeing the development taking place in India, the people of Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) will themselves demand to be reunited with India.  The Defence Minister had said that people should not worry. Pakistan Occupied Kashmir was, is and will remain a part of India.

Rajnath Singh was addressing a rally at West Bengal’s Darjeeling, where the BJP had nominated sitting MP Raju Bista. He said India’s power is increasing and India’s prestige is increasing around the world, and India’s growing economy is fast progressing. He added that India’s brothers and sisters in PoK will themselves demand to come with India.

External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar on Sunday said that POK is a part of India and added that there is a resolution of the Indian Parliament which states that PoK is part of the country. He further added that people were made to forget about Pakistan Occupied Kashmir, but it is now back in the consciousness of the people of India.

Jaishankar further asked how did other people get control of POK? He said one should remember that when one has someone who is not a responsible custodian of a house, someone steals from outside.
