Another 30 Sikhs belonging to five families have arrived in India from Afghan capital Kabul on Wednesday afternoon. The evacuated people belong to five families. In the past month, another 32 Hindus and Sikhs were brought back from Afghanistan.<br />
<br />
As persecution continues against minority groups in the country, currently led by Taliban militants, Sikhs and Hindus have almost entirely left the war-torn country.<br />
<br />
Afghan community Leader in Delhi, Partap Singh told India Narrative that Afghanistan now has the last 15 Sikh families who could not get visas. Once they get the e-visas, they too would leave the country.<br />
<br />
The Sikhs arrived today through a non-scheduled commercial Kam Air flight.<br />
<br />
Their evacuation was made possible by the Shiromani Gurudwara Prabandhak Committee (SGPC), along with the Indian World Forum with help from the Indian government.<br />

Last week, on July 27, <a href="https://www.indianarrative.com/world-news/kabul-s-karte-parwan-gurudwara-comes-under-bomb-attack-again-186694.html">a bomb blast</a> had taken place in a shop owned by a Sikh hakim located outside the main gate of the Karte Parwan gurudwara in Kabul. Though no injuries or casualties were reported, a series of attacks on the Sikhs and the Hindus have made the communities flee the country.<br />
<br />
In June this year the Islamic State (ISIS) attacked the Karte Parwan Gurdwara killing 50 people.<br />
<br />
There have been a spate of deadly attacks on Sikh places of worship in Afghanistan over the past few years.</p>
<p>
The Afghan Sikhs being evacuated are being rehabilitated at Gurdwara Sri Guru Arjan Dev Ji along with World Punjabi Organisation, Sobti Foundation and other social organisations.</p>
