The surprising move comes on the same day Afghanistan’s President Ashraf Ghani met India’s Prime Minister Narendra Modi during his visit, raising speculations of differences between Abadalid and the government.
Sharing his resignation letter on Twitter, Abdali wrote: "Stepping Down - A tough but an appealing decision: On a high note ending a successful visit of HE the Afghan President in India, I resigned today as the Afghan Ambassador to India. Serving in India for more than six years was indeed a great honor and privilege for which I’m deeply grateful to the friendly people and govt. of India"
