Afghan Wolesi Jirga or Lower House of parliament on Monday summoned top security officials including Minister for Defense Abdullah Habibi, Minister for Interior Taj Mohammad Jahid and Mohammad Masoom Stanikzai the head of National Directorate of Security (NDS) or the country's national spy agency to seek clarification over increasing security incidents in the country.
Questioning the top security officials by the legislators is taking place in the wake of deteriorating security situation in parts of the country, increasing security incidents and above all the infiltration of armed insurgents into the main military hospital in Kabul on March 8 which claimed 50 lives and injured scores of others.
The deadly attack on the military hospital in Kabul for which Islamic State (IS) group has claimed of responsibility, has withdrawn wide condemnations at home and abroad, has also raised questions about the ability of security organs to tackle the increasing militancy in Afghanistan.
Afghan security forces have been fighting hardliner militant groups including Taliban and Islamic State outfits to ensure lasting peace in the militancy-plagued country but so far in vain as indiscriminate attacks mostly in the shape of suicide bombings of the hard die militants continue to claim the life of people including civilians in Afghanistan.
