Afghanistan and India have been two friendly countries sharing a long history of close ties. However, the two countries are confronted with a number of challenges including security, extremism, radicalism and trust deficit at the regional level. In the meantime, both countries have socioeconomic and sociopolitical potential for each other that can contribute to their stability and economic development. In order to mitigate the challenges and avail the opportunities, the two countries need to further strengthen their relations for the greater good of the region and people of the two countries. The people to people contact of the two nations has been in the process of development through cultural diplomacy during the last two decades. As part of the diplomacy, the two countries have used education exchange, where Afghan students are provided with scholarships to study in India. In continuation of this effort, Afghanistan and India need to extend education exchange programmes which will contribute to bringing the two nations culturally further closer. As a result, the two countries will be able to further galvanize association of the two nations allowing them to pursue their development, security and prosperity agenda in the region.
