New York-The India-led UN Security Council has strongly condemned the Taliban government’s restrictions on education and employment for women in Afghanistan.
In the South Asian country of Afghanistan, the Taliban terrorist organization seized power in August last year.
In the past, when the Taliban was in power in the 1980s, it imposed many strict restrictions on women. It said that there will be no strict restrictions at present.
But in the past few months, the organization has been imposing many restrictions on women. Women are denied permission to study in colleges.
In schools, girls are not allowed to study beyond the sixth standard.
The Taliban has issued an order banning women from working in NGOs.
The 15-nation UN Security Council has condemned these orders of the Taliban.
While India has assumed the leadership of this organization for this month, India’s ambassador to the UN, Rusira Kamboj, who is its president on behalf of the Security Council, has issued a statement.
It states:
The Taliban has issued several directives to prevent women from gaining access to education and employment. The Security Council condemns this.

The orders of the Taliban violate individual rights and take away basic freedoms.
The Taliban must immediately withdraw these orders and ensure equal rights for women.
This is stated in the report.
