Earlier, two individuals have been killed and many injured in two blasts in Orangi Town Karachi. In Shahbaz Town Quetta militants targeted FC vehicles and killed 5 persons. the recent sectarian strife has engulfed even those areas which were previously unaffected, largely because of the interference of hostile agencies and emergence of organized terrorists group along sectarian lines. In this regard CIA, RAW, Mossad,MI-6 and intelligence agencies of certain Islamic countries’ hands seem to be involved in promoting violence in Pakistan. The blasts waves in Pakistan reveal that foreign sponsored elements have been activated with a view to spread sectarian violence in Pakistan at the occasion of “D Eight Conference”. Thus, there is a need to show solidarity and political leaders should come out and condemn the anti Pakistan elements. Pakistani religious leaders should give statements against TTP and their sponsored who are being played in the foreign hands and giving live losses to the peaceful and innocent citizens.
