"We're either arrested in the bazaar or they came for us at home," he said. "We've suffered. We haven't gone out to work for more than a month. We hope the government will help us in Kabul, give us a tent and some food as we have nothing. We've only got enough money for the bus fare to Kabul."

Afghanistan needs investment from Muslim countries in their mineral sector and also in the infrastructure too.

I am eagerly waiting for expelling of these back stabbers to their native place.

Muslim countries should invest in Afghanistan that will help generate jobs and these Afghans can go back there? What you say?

Don't have any preparations in place? WTF were you doing so far Mr Balkhi? Poodle faking? Didn't you know that the refugees would soon be coming back? You've been sitting on your a$$ as usual. Get moving and start making arrangements for their repatriation instead of quacking like a lame duck.

They can get so racist towards desi people, live on their land, use them then talk badly behind their backs.

But when its time to go home they become a victim all of a sudden.

Its not their Fault. They are War Riddled Country without a Functioning Govt. in Place so very Little they could do for them but things are getting worse in Pakistan as well and Anti Pakistan Sentiments among Afghans have fueled a lot of Hatred for them in Pakistan and whatever Sympathies remain was taken out by TTP hideouts in Afghanistan which has cost this sad outcome to take place. I hope Afghans would be able to Utilize them because they are Hard Working people and can play Constructive role in their Nation Building.

During the Hijrat movement many Muslims from the subcontinent traveled to Afghanistan in the hope of living in a Muslim society but they were rejected. They were robbed and sent back out of pure hatred.

What goes around, comes around you ungrateful Afghans.

They, your hindi muslims, were invited and encouraged by king Amanullah in the first place who hoped to use them against British but he had not anticipated the cost and burden of hosting tens of thousands of indian muslims in very improvised country..........hijrat movement was a stupid idea by deobandis

If Pakistan has decided to sent the Afghans back where they have no means of livelihood, the Indian govt. should help Afghanistan in their rehabilitation on the humanitarian grounds. Being driven to the hilt such people will be tempted to join Talibans (Afghan orPakistan) which is not in the interest of regional peace and stability.

Better still, I think on humanitarian grounds the Indian government should accept them -- Pakistan has hosted them for 30 years -- perhaps India can host them for the next 30 years.

Blahh !!!!
