India will teach Afghanistan how to fight terror
October 04, 2011 14:26
Soon, top Afghan police officials may arrive in New Delhi to receive training from their Indian counterparts.
India has offered to impart anti-terror training to the Afghan police force to help them deal with terror strikes.
The offer comes in the wake of Afghanistan President Hamid Karzai's two-day visit to India to cement bilateral ties.
India's offer is bound to make Islamabad -- traditionally the all-weather ally of Afghanistan -- nervous about New Delhi's real intentions.
Pakistan has often accused India of trying to expand its circle of influence in Afghanistan to counter Islamabad's clout in the violence-hit nation.
