Literally terrorism is an act of violence that has been damaging not only economy, political stability, and social fabric of country but also national integrity. A workable strategy should be chalked out to eradicate the roots of terrorism. Meanwhile, dialogue is deemed is the best tool to tame the monster of terrorism.

The origin of terrorism in Pakistan can be traced back in 1990’s, fall of Soviet Union. Pakistan was constrained in the chains of terrorism with the fall of Soviet Union, where Pakistan played a commendable role along with America to exodus the Russian forces from the Afghanistan’s soil. The America and Pakistan draw a combined strategy, and made a militant organization to score victory against Soviet Union. Ultimately the militant succeeded and embarked victory against the soviet forces. Aftermath, the situation caused severe and disastrous effects on social and economical fabric of the region. Moreover its intensity has increased after 9/11. Pakistan has become an ally with America on war on terrorism. Doubtless, the war was imposed on Pakistan by America. Meanwhile Pakistan has been paying the huge cost of war in casualties of innocents; suicide bombing has become common in the country. A part from that it has totally crippled the social and economical structure of the country. The war has been waging since thirteen long years, caused severe setbacks in all walks of life. American and allied forces have been combating war since thirteen years, to make the region prosperous and stable, but failed to eradicate the roots of terrorism.

Meanwhile, dialogue is deemed as the best course to combat terrorism. An effective and workable plan must be chalked out, to perpetuate the dialogue process. The diplomats have to make a flexible policy, through which the best possible results can be achieved. Doubtless, dialogue is the only tool, which can contain the terrorism.
