Target Killings in Karachi!!

In the recent days, the people of Karachi have lost more than 50 lives due to the target killing. More than 5 dozen families have perished and police in this regard have failed to protect the people. There is no chance of positive outcome of security measures that are being taken in the city. The question which is mainly raised by the ordinary people living in Karachi is the reason for target killing in their city. The answer to their question is the lack of political tolerance.

The city is suffering from target killings which are mainly affecting the city to a great extent and the reason for it is difference of opinion on political, social, religious and sectarian issues which later equates to enmity. All these target killings are the result of absence of tolerance among the people of Karachi, every person has the right of disagreement with certain point of view but that doesn’t means they have no right to live. No security system can stop this target killing unless we should politically decide that we can live in a well-defined democratic manner. Security will only be efficient when we as citizens of Karachi promise to live together with different political point of views as people in developed democracies do.
