ISLAMABAD, June 10: The Revolutionary Association of Women of Afghanistan (Rawa) would support those members of the Loya Jirga who will confirm their loyalty to democracy and the wishes of the people by taking a staunch stand against all the Jihadi and Talibans.

In a press statement issued on Monday the Rawa said people’s disappointment with the Loya Jirga could be better assessed when its results are seen.

It has reiterated that unless fundamentalism is eliminated from the government and all its departments, no development, no institutions and no decisions will be untainted.

Despite all this, some are of the opinion that the participation of democratic and anti-fundamentalist forces was still possible.

The Rawa criticised the composition of the Loya Jirga commission which is in itself unfair and questionable.
