Congress' Supriya Shrinate criticised the exclusion of women journalists from Afghanistan Foreign Minister Amir Khan Muttaqi's press conference during his India visit on Friday. "Why did the Modi govt agree to this ‘men-only’ Talibani diktat?…And how spineless are those male colleagues who didn’t walk out?" Shrinate said. Notably, Centre said it had "no involvement" in Muttaqi's press conference.
