Abstract
This study aims to explain and analyse the post 9/11 sectarian violence in Pakistan and the way it is flourishing. The study also critically analyses the role played by foreign agencies in fuelling sectarian violence, inability of our Government to take concrete actions against perpetrators of sectarian violence and the threat posed to national integration of Pakistan. The Government and institutions have failed to protect the valuable lives and property of its citizens whether they belong to whichever sect. At the same time the foreign agencies are playing a murky role to destabilize our country internally. This study would provide insight that how war on terrorism has affected sectarianism in Pakistan and the role of foreign agencies in strengthening the perpetrators of sectarianism. Furthermore, it provides a linkage to how the sectarianism is threatening the national integration of Pakistan. This study would help out our policy makers to formulate policy for eradicating religious violence and countering the threats to national integration. This research would contribute to the larger body of literature on sectarian violence in Pakistan.
