The women will be allowed to leave homes alone and they will have access to education and work, but they will have to wear the hijab, a Taliban spokesperson told Reuters.
Amid concerns in Afghanistan with regard to the regressive diktats issued by the insurgent group during their reign earlier between 1996 and 2001, the Taliban has said they respect women’s rights.
The women will be allowed to leave homes alone and they will have access to education and work, but they will have to wear the hijab, a Taliban spokesperson told Reuters.
The spokesperson said that policy on punishments will depend on courts and added the media will be allowed to criticise anyone, but they should not indulge in character assassination.
The Taliban insurgents had earlier, as per reports, ordered nine women working with a bank in Kandahar to leave and said the male relatives can take their place.
The foreigners in the city can leave if they wish, but if they continue to stay then they will have to register their presence with Taliban administrators, according to the insurgent group.
Meanwhile, the Taliban commanders claim to have taken over control of Afghanistan’s presidential palace, according to Reuters.
This comes after a senior Interior Ministry official told the news agency that Afghan President Ashraf Ghani has left the country for Tajikistan. However, the President's advisor rubbished the claims and said that he has not yet left the country.
The Taliban insurgents on Sunday entered the outskirts of the capital city, causing panic and fear among the residents.
In a matter of days, the Taliban swept through major parts of Afghanistan, seizing control of around 25 of the 34 provincial capitals, including key cities such as Kandahar, Herat, Mazar-e-Sharif and Jalalabad.
