Taliban and its affiliates like ASWJ have been killing innocent people all around the country with impunity. But Taliban-Nawaz government has not even discussed this issue during any of their negotiations with Taliban.
Following article explains lousy Nawaz govt policies which it claims will curb rising sectarian killings.
Such policies show collusion of Nawaz government with sectarian killers. Not attempting of stop killings of innocent people puts Nawaz in line with Taliban, ASWJ, and, Modi.
But then we all knew it already.
Steps listed to fight sectarian strife - Pakistan - DAWN.COM
The ministry has listed five steps that the government is implementing to curb sectarian violence. Ironically, none of them appears to be going to stop mindless persecution of people in the name of religion. Most of the suggested measures have already been used as a policy — but to little avail.
The first (and rather old step) is keeping a close watch on clandestine activities through police, intelligence departments and other law enforcement agencies.
Second, the government has recognized the threat posed by violent sectarian elements as a threat to internal national security in the new National Internal Security Policy. It claims that the government will deal with it comprehensively.
As its third step, **sectarian killing will be deemed as an offence to be dealt with by the Protection of Pakistan Ordinance (PPO). **The government hopes that this will ensure prompt investigation and adjudication.
The government has already extended the life of the PPO by another 120 days through a resolution passed in the National Assembly, but its future remains uncertain as opposition parties say they will not support it unless significant amendments are made to it.
Fourth, the government says it will ban sectarian organisations that preach hate. Since the present government came into being, not a single organisation has been banned, although many banned groups have appeared with new names.
Critics argue that banning an organisation serves little purpose if they are not monitored and the ban is not effectively imposed. The incessant sectarian killings by proscribed organisations could be cited to substantiate the argument.
The last action suggested by the interior ministry, headed by Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan, is to take action against publication and distribution of hate literature.
This too is nothing new. For decades, experts have been suggesting that such writings need to be controlled. Whether the present government will be able to succeed where all others have failed is anybody’s guess.
