Pakistan's Chief of Army Staff, General Asim Munir, emphasizes the need for a zero-tolerance stance against intolerance and extremism, particularly towards minorities and vulnerable segments. The country's ongoing battle against terrorism is linked to addressing the root cause of extremism, as evidenced by the resurgence of terrorist groups like the Tehreek-e-Labbaik Pakistan (TLP) and Islamic State Khorasan Province (ISKP). The need for a major revamp of Pakistan's counterterrorism framework is evident, as the Taliban takeover of Afghanistan has led to a rise in militant violence, necessitating a shift from proactive to reactive approaches.
