The taleban are trying their utmost to disrupt the polling process by increasing activities in KPK, Quetta and Karachi. InshaAllah all their efforts would fail.
Who ever forms the next government will have to ensure good governance (as thats essential to rid us from the terrorist scourge once for all). The political vacuum and bad governance helps subversive elements.
