New Delhi: Two Indian nationals, who were released from captivity in Afghanistan on July 31, returned to India on Tuesday, officials said.

"It would be recalled that seven Indian nationals were kidnapped in Afghanistan in May 2018, including the two who returned today," the Ministry of External Affairs said in a statement.

Six Indian nationals have now been released so far from captivity.

"We thank the Government of the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan for their constant and unwavering support in securing the release of the Indians," MEA said.
