Afghan general holds talks with Indian army chief

In a significant move, India and Afghanistan paved the way for high-level military exchanges, with the head of the newly raised Afghan army General Bismillah Khan arriving in New Delhi on a three-day official visit.
Khan, the first Afghan army chief to come to New Delhi almost after two decades, held a lengthy one-to-one meeting with the Chief of the Army Staff General NC Vij.
He will also hold meetings with the Air Chief S Krishnaswamy and Admiral Madhvendera Singh, Chairman Chiefs of Staff Committee, PTI reported.
Highly-placed sources said Khan was given a 90-minute situation briefing at the war room on various militant groups with tentacles in India as well as Afghanistan.
