New Delhi, Aug 17 (TIWN) The Taliban takeover in Afghanistan has adversely impacted the import-export trade in India -- the largest beneficiary of Afghanistan's exports -- a development that has left traders, especially those importing dry fruits, worried.
Afghan exports to India include dried raisins, walnut, almond, fig, pine nut, pistachios, dried apricot, and fresh fruits such as apricot, cherry, watermelon, and medicinal herbs. India’s exports to Afghanistan include tea, coffee, pepper and cotton, toys, footwear, and various other consumable items, traders said. Most of the imports from Afghanistan transit through Pakistan. The import-export shipments are currently stuck which may cause heavy losses to the traders, who may also see large amounts of payments blocked.
