After facing backlash for excluding women journalists from his earlier press conference, visiting Afghan Foreign Minister Amir Khan Muttaqi has scheduled another media interaction on Sunday, October 12, this time extending invitations to female reporters, according to sources.
Muttaqi, who arrived in New Delhi on Thursday for a week-long visit, drew sharp criticism on Friday after women journalists were reportedly barred from attending his press meet.
The incident sparked outrage among media and rights groups, who accused the Taliban representative of discriminatory behaviour.
