Pakistan To Grant Visas To Afghan Patients At Torkham Gate

Pakistan’s Interior Minister Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan in a meeting with Afghan border forces has vowed to issue ‘urgent visas’ to Afghan patients at Torkham entry point, VOA reported on Thursday.

According to the report, the Pakistani minister has said the issue of visas for Afghan patients will be resolved in the near future.

 “We welcome them [Afghans] to visit us and we want to visit their country. When more than 3.5 million Afghans were in difficulty and needed our help [as refugees], Pakistanis generously welcomed them and will do so if, God forbid, they [Afghans] faced such problems in future. But the freedom of movement they were enjoying until now was being misused by terrorists," Khan said as quoted by VOA. 

According to the report, Nisar Ali Khan said Pakistan will construct six automated border crossings with Afghanistan equipped with latest immigration facilities by 2020 in order to enable the control of traffic between the two countries.
