Of course the state narrative will have to change and the state will have to stop exploiting religion for its grand designs. The state will have to deal with the sectarian and extremist outfits and lend its support to moderate voices in religion. But the point is, the state will remain unwilling to do that unless there is increasing amount of public pressure. I also understand that extremism will perhaps always remain so I'm not asking for its complete elimination, only countering it with a alternate narrative, which is almost nonexistent in today's Pakistan.
