KABUL, Oct. 13 (Xinhuanet) -- The government of India as part of its
contribution in rebuilding post-war Afghanistan has decided tohelp build a
parliament house for the post-Taliban central Asian state, Afghan presidential
spokesman said Wednesday.
"This building with an estimation of 20 million US dollars will be built near the Darul
Aman Palace in southwest Kabul," Jawed Ludin told reporters here at a news
briefing. He failed to say anything about the inception of the work on the
project but added: "It was decided in the cabinet meeting today."
The first-ever Afghan parliamentary election is expected to beheld six
months after the inclusion of the presidential polls in next April. India, one
of the vigorous donors for the war-shattered Afghanistan, has committed over 100
million US dollars in the rebuilding of this poor nation. Enditem
