Presently, terrorists and militant outfits across the country and particularly in the tribal areas seem to be in a weak position. Thanks to the effort of our security forces that the activities of these terrorists have been limited.
There is a marked decrease in terrorist incidents. This clearly points towards the frail condition of these militant outfits. However, the target killings that happened in Karachi and Balochistan are matters of serious concern. Those involved in these incidents are not militants, but are only doing this for their political gains. Maintenance of law and order, especially in Karachi, is important because of its importance as the financial capital of the country. We have already seen the implications these terrorists attacks can cause. These incidents can further damage the prevailing conditions.
