Basej-e Milli
The Basej-e Milli alternatively called Rawand-e Sabz-e Afghanistan is a political party in Afghanistan created by former Afghan intelligence chief Amrullah Saleh. Basej-e Milli started as a grassroots movement when Saleh visited cities and small towns in several Afghan provinces talking about his political beliefs in favour of democracy and reform but strongly opposing the Taliban. In May 2011, more than 100,000 of Saleh's followers took part in an anti-Taliban demonstration in the capital Kabul.
