Read Time:3 Minute, 1 Second

With the continuing terror incident, the ongoing talks between the Pakistani and Tehreek-e-E-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) government which were prohibited in Afghanistan were heading for collapse. This might further complicate the efforts of the Pakistani government to end almost two decades of militancy in a strict border region. In July, Pakistan recorded 99 deaths related to terrorism compared to 102 in June.

Data shows that civilian death fell from 20 to 11 (45%) and the death of security forces fell from 51 to 38 (25.49%), while terrorist deaths increased from 31 to 50 (61.29%). But apart from the decline in death between security forces, the number of deaths in this category remains high. Although there is no organization that claims to be responsible for most of this murder, given the fact that most of the deaths occur in the TTP operational area in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, it is very possible that the terror group is behind this attack.

In addition, the cracks in the ruling alliance, the bitterness between Imran Khan Pakistan Tehreek-e-insaaf and the government, and the terrible economic situation was formed to further disrupt the system.

In July, Pakistani’s economic conditions deteriorate and tend to deteriorate further. On July 29, Rupee fell to the lowest of all time in the open market, trading as high as 250 against the dollar. Rupees have depreciated 20 percent in recent months. One of the reasons for the jumping of Rupees is the market panic because of political instability.

On July 27, Pakistan Negara Bank reported that the current account deficit had increased to the highest four years of USD 17.4 billion in the fiscal year 2021-22. The deficit is only 2.8 billion in the 2020-21 fiscal year. A large gap shows a severe balance of payment problems.

The latest deadlock occurred after TTP refused to resign from his request to reverse the merger of the tribal area that was managed federally with the Kyber Pakhtunkhwa Province.

Not surprisingly, Pakistan made every effort to get a loan to help curled up because of the crisis. On July 29, Head of Army Qamar Javed Bajwa had a telephone conversation with US Deputy Secretary Wendy Sherman to ask for help in securing the disbursement of initial funds from the IMF in an effort to avoid default.The latest deadlock occurred after TTP refused to resign from his request to reverse the merger of the tribal area that was managed federally with the Kyber Pakhtunkhwa Province.

On July 30, the delegation of 17 members led by lawyer Mohammad Ali Saif, a special assistant for information and public relations with Kyber Pakhtunkhwa, Chairman of the Minister Mahmood Khan together with elders and parliament members reached the Kabul on a four -day visit to continue the talks with The Tribal with The The The Chieviews With the Resume with The TTP. But that reiterated his request for previous status restoration from tribal territory.
