- The Taliban have announced the formation of a new military unit called the ‘Panipat operational unit’.
- The new unit will be deployed in Afghanistan’s Nangarhar province, bordering Pakistan.
- Panipat in Haryana was the place where three battles were fought between foreign invaders and Indian rulers.
- In Afghanistan, these battles, especially the third one fought between Ahmad Shah Abdali and the Marathas on January 14, 1761, often come up for discussion.
- Abdali is widely regarded as the founder of present-day Afghanistan.
- Afghans cherish his victory over the Maratha forces as perhaps his greatest achievement against odds.
