Kabul women burn burqa; Taliban ban women without burqa in Herat.<\/strong><\/p>\n

A number of members of the Afghan Women\u2019s History Transformation Movement in Kabul symbolically burned the garment in protest against the mandatory wearing of burqa in public places.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The women say that the Taliban, with their extremist views, have imposed dominance and control on society and have deprived women of access to basic services in hospitals and other public centers.<\/strong><\/p>\n

At the same time, local sources in Herat have reported that the Taliban\u2019s Department of Encouraging Virtue and Preventing Vice has banned drivers of city and passenger buses from giving rides to women without burqas, even if they have a male mahram.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Maulvi Khalid, the head of the department in Herat\u2019s Farsi district, has asked religious scholars to raise the issue in Friday prayers.<\/strong><\/p>\n

According to him, Amr-e-Maruf officers stop passenger vehicles carrying women without burqas and do not allow them to enter Herat city.<\/strong><\/p>\n

These measures have led to further restrictions on women and increased protests against the Taliban\u2019s coercive policies.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
