KABUL – The chief executive of Jamiat-e-Islami Ata Mohammad Noor has onceagain warned that he and his supporters will launch widespread civilmovements if the ongoing talks between Jamiat-e-Islami and the governmentfail.

Noor made the latest remarks during a gathering attended by scores of hissupporters in Mazar-e-Sharif city in North of Afghanistan.

According to the ex-governor of Balkh province, no major breakthrough hasbeen achieved during the ongoing talks so far and only little progress hasbeen made.

He called on his supporters that they will be summoned for the civilmovements if the talks end without any outcome and in case the two sidesdid not reach to any agreement.

This comes as the Afghan government announced nearly a month ago that theresignation of Ata Mohammad Noor from the Balkh government has beenapproved by President Mohammad Ashraf Ghani.
