Pakistan has rejected the Afghan government’s request to extend the stay of Afghan nationals residing illegally in the twin cities of Islamabad and Rawalpindi as these Afghan nationals were ordered to leave Pakistan by February 28, 2025 last year.
According to the Sources, the security agencies have prepared lists of all such individuals, and Information about their residences/locations has also been compiled.
Afghan nationals who have documents to go to any other country can stay here till March 31 this year.
After this date, they will also have to leave Pakistan. Afghan nationals, who have valid Pakistani visas for the period for which it has been issued, can continue to stay till then. Government sources said on Wednesday that the decision to deport Afghan nationals has become inevitable due to the security situation and sensitivity of the twin cities.
