Taliban collects a number of books from bookstores in Kabul

RASC News Agency: The Ministry of Information and Culture of the Taliban in Kabul has once again imposed several restrictions on the country’s citizens. They recently announced the gathering of a significant number of books from city bookstores. Zia-ul-Haq Haqmal, the ministry’s head, stated on January 29th that these books were deemed contrary to religious teachings.

In an interview with TOLOnews, he elaborated on two options to address the issue. Firstly, they can offer financial assistance to the booksellers, and secondly, the Bayhaqi Publications Directorate can distribute books to them. It’s noteworthy that this isn’t the first time the Taliban has collected books from various locations in Kabul and directed booksellers not to sell materials conflicting with religious teachings.

Since the Taliban’s assumption of power in Afghanistan, a significant number of educated young individuals have opted to leave the country and seek refuge in neighboring nations, aiming to ultimately reach European countries. This mass exodus directly stems from the strict regulations and limitations imposed by the Taliban.

The recent action by the Ministry of Information and Culture to confiscate books from bookstores further underscores the oppressive atmosphere created. The Taliban’s persistent restrictions on Afghanistani citizens have resulted in a loss of intellectual freedom and a decline in the country’s cultural and educational advancement.
