Like you might have heard that there has been yet another terrorist attack in Pakistan. According to reports, at least 20 people have lost their lives when armed militants entered Bacha Khan university in Charsadda and created a hue and cry. Similar attacks were conducted in 2014 at the Peshawar School. Seems like these attacks are getting pretty common in Pakistan and there are many reasons to it. It won’t be wrong to say that Pakistan is a safe land for terrorists. Here are seven reasons to support the statement: –
Why Pakistan is a safe land for terrorists?
1.The Government’s attitude
The government is the biggest reason why Pakistan is a safe land for terrorists. It won’t be wrong to say that the government has been muted in dealing with terrorists. Many attacks have been conducted like these and the government has never shown any proper measures so as to fight terrorism. If they would have taken proper measures, then another attack like this would have never happened just after the devastating Peshawar school attacks.
2.Past Instances
Like I had mentioned before, there have been many instances so as to prove why Pakistan is a safe land for terrorists. The Peshawar school attack and 26/11 Mumbai Attacks are just small examples to prove the government’s ignorance to fight terrorism. There are many other names linked with terrorism, you can find the details mentioned in the points below.
3.Allegations proved right
This is one of the reasons to confirm so as to why Pakistan is a safe land for terrorists. Before the assassination of Osama Bin Laden, Pakistan used to say that he does not live in their country. Everyone know what had happened later when America’s military forces entered Pakistan and killed the most wanted terrorist. These allegations are enough to prove that Pakistan is a safe land for terrorists.
4.Links with terrorists
There have been many names involved in this category. Osama Bin Laden was found in Pakistan, Ajmal Kasab, a terrorist involved in 26/11 Mumbai Attacks was proved to be a citizen of Pakistan. According to reports, Dawood Ibrahim, the most wanted terrorist in India is said to be living in Karachi, Pakistan.
5.Extremist Leaders
If the leaders of a nation are good, then they will make sure that the power of the nation does not go in wrong hands. Some leaders of Pakistan are equally responsible for us to conclude that Pakistan is a safe land for terrorists, because if they were serious about eliminating terrorism then they would have taken some action to destroy it from its roots.
6.Corrupt Intelligence
ISI better known as Inter-Services Intelligence is the organization which provide intelligence services for Pakistan. Now, as we know it a nation’s security is depended upon the intelligence of the country. ISI has always been in the media reports due to wrong reasons like providing assistance to terrorists like Osama Bin Laden and Dawood Ibrahim in hiding away from American and Indian authorities.
7.Ignorance
The last reason for me to conclude that Pakistan is a safe land for terrorists is the ignorant attitude of the government of Pakistan and some of its citizens. They have taken absolutely no hard measures in making Pakistan a better place to live in.
Their ignorant attitude has brought Pakistan to such a state that now everybody sees Pakistan as a terrorist country.
We hope that the concerned authorities take relevant action in making Pakistan a better place.

Well Mr Karishna Gupta, just tell me one thing when Pakistani will start seeing that its not an indian writer who is writing against Pakistan. I don’t have a time to argue here but there are many links, you know better then me as journalist, that I can share to prove your theory wrong. Be realistic and start criticising people who are developing this terrorism culture around the borders of Pakistan to let people think that Pakistan is a terrorist country.
In my personal view, Pakistan is a safe haven for terrorists. After 69 years of Independence if Pakistan could not control cross border terrorism then why not accept the present status. The terrorists, for instance, Bin laden, Hafiz, Masud Azhar and so on.
This article was written on the basis of a lot of analysis, Zeshan. It is not about criticizing people, it is about the intent which the Pakistan government shows in uprooting terrorism from their country. Anyways, thank you for taking out the time to comment on my article.
