Swat militants’ request for help was declined by the Afghan Taliban, claiming non-interference policies
Both centres and six vehicles got destroyed. Thirty-three militants also got killed in the operation.”
The so-called Islamic militants have not only been a source of destabilisation in Pakistan but have also been providing fodder to India and executing terrorist attacks there much to the embarrassment of democratically-elected Pakistan government that is pursuing friendly relations with India.
President Asif Ali Zardari and Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani have been quite vocal against Talibanisation of Pakistan and have pursued a policy of eliminating the menace as quickly as possible because suicide bombings threatens the length and breadth of Pakistan and even military installations are not safe from these deadly attacks.
“The Swat operation has been successful to the extent that no territory is now under the control of Taliban,” Pakistan’s top defence analyst and scholar Dr Hasan Askari-Rizvi told B&E. “Normal administration has been restored. However, the Taliban are hiding in mountains and come down to engage in violence from time to time. This kind of threat is likely to persist for an indefinite period,” he said.
Unlike his predecessors, Chief of the Army Staff Gen Ashfaq Pervez Kayani has been serious in eradicating the so-called Islamic militants and life has returned to almost normal in the scenic Swat Valley after displaced people returned home. Even the US administration that looked towards military operation carried out by Gen. (retired) Pervez Musharraf with suspicion has shown satisfaction over the operation carried out by Kayani.
However, several scholars are still skeptic about the intensity of the military operation.
