Torkham border remained closed on the sixth consecutive day yesterday as well.

According to The News Pakistan news reporter Ashrafuddin Pirzada, Pak-Afghan Dosti Bus Service managing director Haji Nasir Khan said that he ran buses and taxicabs between Pakistan and Afghanistan, adding, thousands of Afghans have been stranded in Jalalabad due to the border closure.

Khan also added that before the border closure at least 10 Dosti buses crossed the border on daily basis, transporting passengers from Peshawar to Jalalabad city of Nangarhar province in Afghanistan. He said around 2,000 Afghans and Pakistani nationals were using the bus service.

Nasir Khan said closure of the Torkham border was badly affecting private travel and tour services.

“Afghans have been living in Pakistan for 40 years and they consider it as their second home,” said Nasir. He said thousands of Afghans in Pakistan and in Afghanistan were eagerly waiting for reopening of Torkham border so that they celebrate EidulFitr with their relatives.

He requested the two Muslim brotherly countries to resolve the issue as soon as possible because it was causing financial losses to people on the one hand and creating a rifts and hatred amongst them on the other.
