  • The Non-Pashtun Taleban of the North (1): a Case Study from Badakhshan
    The Non-Pashtun Taleban of the North (1): A case study from Badakhshan Author : Obaid Ali Published: 3 January 2017 Downloaded: 4 September 2018 Download URL: https://www.afghanistan-analysts.org/the-non-pashtun-taleban-of-the-north-a-case-study-from-badakhshan/?format=pdf The Taleban movement is winning ground in the northern province of Badakhshan, a province that was never conquered when the Taleban were in power in the 1990s. Over the past two years, a new generation of largely Tajik Taleban has come to pose a serious challenge for the Afghan National Security Forces (ANSF) : a number of districts have changed hands between the ANSF and insurgents, and two strategic districts are now insurgent strongholds. Its success seems partly due to a recruitment policy that – in contrast to the 1990s – favours local non-Pashtuns for key provincial positions and as fighters. In this provincial case study, AAN’s Obaid Ali analyses the Taleban’s new recruitment policy and how it has strengthened the movement (with input from Borhan Osman and Thomas Ruttig). In 2004, as the insurgency began to gather pace, setting up a shadow administration was one of the Taleban’s major political strategies for controlling both territory and population. Over the years, in the Tajik and Uzbek-dominated provinces in the north, the movement increasingly 1 / 7 appointed local non-Pashtuns, from shadow governors – both at the provincial and district level – to judges and heads of provincial committees. In Badakhshan, a Tajik-dominated province, most Taleban posts are now occupied by Tajiks. The shift in the movement’s recruitment strategy seems to have had a visible impact on its battlefield gains in Badakhshan.

  • Badakhshan Province — Market Assessment
    BADAKHSHAN PROVINCE — MARKET ASSESSMENT mVAM AFGHANISTAN - MARKET ASSESSMENT BULLETIN #7 November-2017 KEY FINDINGS Presence of AGEs in some of the surrounding villages has complicated food deliveries to some district markets by traders; however household access to the local district markets is not a concern. AGE activity has also caused road closures to Kuf Ab, Wakhan and Darwaz districts, whilst illegal taxation, high transportation cost and bad road conditions have also hindered traders access to some of the districts. Food prices have increased for all staple commodities in all assessed districts of Badakhshan when compared to Takhar and Kunduz centre supply markets ,due to increased transportation costs and normal road closure due to heavy snow-fall in Badakhshan. However, the price of rice was reported to be 9 percent lower in Shakhi district. Supply of food commodities is mainly from Tajikistan border to Kunduz province, from where it is further supplied to Darwaz, Shaki and Kuf Ab districts while food supply to Wakhan, Khwahan and Koran Wa Mojan is primarily from centre markets of Takhar province. Though the assessed districts has security issues and concerns, while households have not faced safety security risks and issues in performing livelihood activities and accessing markets. However, availability of casual labour work is very limited (1 – 2 day/week) mainly due to remote geographic location of the assessed districts, harsh winter season and fewer industries and lack of agricultural production due to the current winter season. Assessment Background and Methodology WFP mVAM has been conducting market assessments since December 2016 in Southern and Eastern regions of Afghanistan.
