I have a solution to the Afghan refugee crisis. Why doesn't India host Afghan refugees in Kashmir?
This sounds to me like a plan.

So your intelligence agency messes with Afganistan for decades, and you send the refugee to India?
No thanks.
Why would Afghans come to a country that is supposedly destroying them? Its like Pakistanis running to India during an Indo-Pak conflict or Palestinians running to Israel seeking refuge. It would make no sense.
And what better way for India to expand this burgeoning friendship by accepting millions of their friends?
After the Taliban government was toppled, India has actively participated in rebuilding efforts of Afghanistan.
Every year, about 1,000 Afghan students study in Indian universities on scholarships, and Afghan civil servants have access to Indian training institutions.The Indian government also runs a program that provides lunch meals to around 2 million Afghan school children. In addition, India has also constructed numerous field clinics and a children’s’ hospital.
The Indian firm C&C Constructions has been actively involved in the infrastructure sector in Afghanistan. It has built roads exceeding the length of 700 km in total which cost around US $250 million. Other projects include a 400-km power line, and a hydro-electricity plant.
Now, only if Pakistan stopped attacking Indian embassy there, rebuilding work would go lot faster and the Afghans wont have to leave their homeland in the first place.
No thank you we are way too overpopulated as it is..
1000 hand picked Afghan students being allowed to study under supervision in India is a drop in the ocean. There's over 18,000 Indian students in the UK alone. We haven't even touched the subject of refugees, and let's face it, that is where the real issues arise. War torn populations are fleeing death and destruction. They need refuge not student visas for the sons and daughters of the elite.
But you found space for invitations to Sikhs and Hindus of Pakistan, those people weren't refugees as far as I'm aware.
This is the problem Captain, if Hindus and Sikhs weren't being chased away from Pakistan and Bangladesh by majority there, our hands wouldn't be full, and we could have considered taking the Afghans.
Many muslim brothers would be willing to help Afghans due to unmah, unlike the Hindus and Sikhs for whom India is the only ray of hope.
So in reality India is more inclined to be welcoming to Sikhs and Hindus from Pakistan than war-torn refugees from Afghanistan. The extent of the "friendship" revealed.
I would love to. They can come en masse and whip up their lip smacking cuisine day and night, and we'd never get enough of it. If they have any guys who can run fast and hurl leather, we can chuck out Ishant from our team too - double whammy!
There's just one teensy-weensy problem in all this. It is thus: We have 1,373,469,219 people out here already. And I don't know about you, but I have no interest in have that burgeon to a heart stopping 1,386,722,590!
So I guess thanks but no thanks, for now.
Yes India can be a solution to the Afghan refugee crisis - by spending billions of dollars, as they've done in the past and will do in the future, to help rebuild Afghanistan so that it's stable enough for refugees to return back there. The Chinese are doing the same.
While some nations are sending economic aid into Afghanistan others are sending militants in that direction and making the lives of so many Afghans worse.

I have suggested this for ages now, but I see no reason why it should be restricted to Kashmir. Why not Mumbai or Delhi? This is the least a friendly nation can do, and we all know that it's what Pakistan did during the Soviet invasion. Only problem might be that Bangladesh may feel put out that while India has raised a fence to stop Bangladeshis coming into India, how come they are inviting Afghan refugees if there is no room?
India should consider itself lucky to not be sharing a border with them.
No wonder so much hate comes out of Pakistan.But they share a border with Pakistan, which is inhabited by people like you.No wonder so much hate comes out of Pakistan.
I actually have no dislike for Indians at all, this sub continental hatred is an election propaganda more than anything and I hope one day the countries learn to live in peace.
Afghans are a totally different story all together. Maybe you haven't had first hand experience of dealing with this ungrateful species yet so you might be thinking of me as some sort of an extremist but they day you actually talk to an afghani settled in Pakistan and when you hear and see the arrogance and disgusting they have for Pakistan and Pakistanis then you will understand my sentiments.
Speak for yourself, my town in Pakistan has plenty of Afghan refugees. I don't really care what they have to say about Pakistan. I expect such behavior from uneducated people and have the ability to tolerate it. Their behavior will change once they live in a good environment. What I can't tolerate is when educated people living in peace act like knuckle draggers.
Just give it a few months. I've every confidence that your countrymen will get to that 1,386,722,590 figure all on their own, without an Afghan in sight, ....There's just one teensy-weensy problem in all this.

This is a brilliant idea, if any Afghan needs to come over to India, India need to provide sanctuary to all such people. This should be sponsored by UN. UN needs to create a corridor to connect Afghanistan with India, which should be manned by UN peace keeping forces. Any Afghan who wishes to come to India, will be required to travel without any papers through the corridor and then ask for asylum at India's border. Any country wishing to use the corridor for any mean apart from India and Afghanistan will be required to pay and use.
What a wonderful idea.
If it's such a wonderful idea then what's stopping you? How come the deeds don't match the words?
There is a small issue of creating a passage from Afghanistan's eastern border to India's western border, which should be exclusive to both the countries to be manned by UN. It depends on how the country in between reacts.
Its true. India can definitely give what Pakistan have been giving to Afghanistan since 1979 (Soviet War):
- Food & Shelter to Millions of Afghans
- Citizenship to millions
- Safe passage for them to apply as Pakistanis and go overseas (to UK, Canada, US, etc)
- Education
- Opportunities in terms of businesses
Again, why do the Afghans hate Pakistan (and not Russia or USA)?
Would be really good that all the refugees can go to India, as they mingle with them way more and love the Indians.
I hear ya bro. This is exactly the same situation for us in the UK. We would LOVE to take in more Afghans and even more Indians as requested by Modi ji, but despite it's name, Great Britain isn't really that big. We are overcrowded and we need jobs for our own people, hence the world shattering Brexit vote. So let me echo....thanks but no thanks....for now!
Did your govt take any steps to propose such a solution to "the country in between"?
Did you know that in the past 2 years there have been more requests for asylum from Pakistanis in U.K. then from Afghans. Why do you think that is?
Pakistan is safe
Pakistan is not being occupied by any other nation
It has a strong army and economy
It's a democratic country
However, Afghanistan is no where near achieving all the above points.
Indian government will be more than willing to accept the proposal, but bifurcating the land mass between India and Afghanistan through peaceful process is not easy.
Can you provide some evidence that Indian govt would make this proposal or has any inclination to accept Afghan refugees either from Afghanistan or those currently being provided shelter in Pakistan? Because if not, stop giving misleading statements on their behalf.
Yes the evidence is there, but it will be provided to credible source who represent government. Do you?
Hi, can you please share some news regarding the "food" that Pakistan has been giving to Afghan refugees over these years?
How many afghans have been given Pakistani citizenship officially? Not the fake ones which are being cancelled by curent pak government and the afghans who thought they had Pakistani ID cards or nationality are being deported. You said millions but I have no knowledge of even a few thousands!
I have asked this many times but everyone keeps ignoring this because no one seems to have an answer. Why have these 3 million illegal refugees / illegal immigrants not been given an opportunity to become legal residents and integrate in Pakistani society?
I know afghans have been able to get education in Pakistani private schools ( they have paid for it and isn't free) without documents, but the question here is, why not give them documents so they can settle down after they have graduated? Why just leave them in no man's land so whenever the government wants they can kick them out? This has been the story for over 30 years.
I know many afghans who want to travel these days can apply for different visas etc . However, those afghans who have lived in Pakistan or were born in Pakistan have had to go back to Afghanistan and start everything all over again.
All this things give a negative image of Pakistan to afghans. No one likes two faced people who like to give from one hand and then hit you from the back when opportunity arises.
All these afghans will go back to Afghanistan if we have peace and security in Afghanistan. For that to happen Pakistan has to change their foreign policy towards Afghanistan. I think everyone should work for a better Afghanistan then no one will need to worry about afghan refugees.
Wether it's india or Pakistan, no one should be burdened with this as they have their own people to look after. Unfortunately, afghans have no choice but to run otherwise why would anyone be at a place where they are not wanted or liked?
I don't know how I could take your posts seriously on this matter when you yourself (or maybe your parents) used Pakistan as a stepping stone to move to UK.![]()
So basically Afghan refugees who are now all over Pakistan, including the whole land between Karachi and Hyderabad (which is no where close to Afghanistan) were left all hungry and go "no food"?
Again, its really hard to take your posts seriously. Afghan people are alive today because of Pakistan's compassion. I suppose if it was India next door to Afghanistan, we would've seen 50% pre-1979 Afghanistan vanish from the face of the earth.
The biggest obstacle I feel for India to take Afghan refugees is the religion of Afghans.
I am pretty sure most would welcome Afghans if they were Hindus/Buddhists/Sikhs/Jains.

Don't Kashmiri Pandits - not talking of Dalits there, but the cream of Brahmanism - still complain that they have been living in camps, decades after their forced exile from the Valley, with no real, substantial help at private or govt. level ?
