The attack on the poor polio eradicators contains manifold reasons behind this brutal act. We are facing enmity of several groups. It is not easy to convict any group without sufficient investigation and valid evidences. Fighting with an open enemy is not as difficult as to chase the hidden or disguised rivals. We have one group who openly claims himself responsible for several attacks, so automatically their name comes first in such activities.

Keeping the agenda of Taliban, it can not be neglected that these attacks are committed by them. Because there are rumors about the aforesaid vaccine that it contains some components for reducing the reproduction abilities. Taliban and many other think it unIslamic so they don't want to get these drops drink by their offspring. Taliban, according to their previous course of action, want to impose their opinions upon others so they target the poor workers. This way they easily attained their target as the vaccination has been stopped just after the attacks.

Another reason behind these attacks, may be the fear of agents like Shakeel Afridi, who through a fake vaccination entered into their crack-man and stolen precious information. They may be afraid that there may be agents disguised in the polio workers.

Third aspect that clues in the involvement of Taliban, is the revenge of their defeat in recent attack on Peshawar Airport.

The hand of foreign factor also can not be neglected. India does not want us to sustain even. So, she would not like the eradication of the disease from our country. She took the advantage of the name of Taliban, and targeted the innocent ladies. She got dual benefit from it. She portrayed us as a country where even females are not safe, and our government is not capable of handling the activists. She also steps forward to make us alone at international level as UN can ban us to travel to polio-free countries without a proper polio checkup.

US also can be involved in this act. She may paved the way for strengthening her drone and do-more strategy. And if, God forbid me, we are banned to travel to other countries, she may offer us her assistance and may demand any thing from us---any surely does not mean a candy at all.

Whatever the reasons behind the attacks were, it is not an attack on the workers only but direct on our sovereignty. As the consequences will surely affect us in one way or other. I wish, some of our government personnel may find an intelligent way to minimize the aftershocks..

May Allah save us as He is doing since the time of independence. ameen
