The caretaker government’s initiative to repatriate Afghan nationals from Pakistan, despite facing criticism, is undeniably a positive stride for our nation’s improvement. Interestingly, while our nationals purchase high-cost visas to seek employment abroad, Afghans are doing so without any expense in our country. It’s common knowledge that no country permits illegal foreign workers, and Pakistan should be no exception. Pakistan’s stance is not against Afghanistan; historically, it has aided Afghanistan in times of need, such as in 1979. This approach will not only uphold the law but also contribute to the country’s revenue generation amid challenging economic times.
