Islamabad: Pakistan's Jamiat Ulema-i-Islam-Fazl (JUI-F) chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman said his outfit will extend political support to the Taliban government in Afghanistan.

The JUI-F chief made the comment during a meeting with Afghan Education Minister Mullah Abdul Baqi Haqqani who called on him at his residence to discuss regional politics.

“The consistency and struggle based on principles has led to success of the Islamic Emirate,” Rehman was quoted as saying by Dawn News to the Afghan minister, adding that the world should accept the government of the Islamic Emirate Afghanistan and help them in every possible way.

Meanwhile, sources in the party told the newspaper that Haqqani is among those Taliban leaders who have received education in seminaries affiliated with the JUI-F.

It was disclosed that the Afghan minister wanted the JUI-F chief to use his office to extend humanitarian support including food and warm clothing to Afghan people.
