| Summary / Abstract (Note) | The turmoil of terrorism has been the cardinal concern of world for so long. This got intensified after 9/11 as situation in Afghanistan and neighboring Central Asia had serious security related implications for the region and countries beyond. Now when major exit of US led NATO has happened and Afghan security forces are proving inadequate to the task, such concerns are being revisited. A new dimension has been added in view of IS entering Afghanistan, thus further vitiating the situation of security. However, contrary to this kind of popular view it has been argued here that the move to give responsibility of security to the local forces is a move in the right direction as ultimately this has to be task of the state of Afghanistan. Training and equipping of the Afghan security is the only course as larger political issues beyond immediate security concerns are to be settled by domestic forces.
