Religion and politics are two different domains but are correlated in Pakistan by the political elite. Its roots are traced from colonial India where religion had been used to legitimize political actions and energize the public to boost movements. Pakistan being an ideological state prioritizes Islam in all functional institutions and politics remained its epicenter right from the Objective Resolution (1949) which raised the question of minority rights. Later, Bhutto's Islamic Socialism, Zia's Islamization, Moderate Civilian rule, and Musharraf's Enlightened Moderation made the situation even more complex and engendered intolerance and a radical approach which resulted in the tragic incident of Lal Masjid and the emergence of Pakistan Awami Tahreek and Tehreek-e-Labaik Pakistan. Where the real religious issues were left behind and cosmetic approaches and engineered religious leaders directed the general masses that damaged the social fabric of society.
