Political Elite and Extremism: A Challenge for the Stability of Pakistan
The extreme behaviours of Pakistani politicians are another dilemma which is prompting different kinds of extreme norms in Pakistani politics. Moreover, political extremism is another factor which is creating a ground for religious extremism in our country. The focal point of this study lies in many factors which are enhancing extremism in different fields of life: such as lack of trustworthy nationwide political parties, multi-party system, switching parties and affiliation for personal interest, fake promises of politicians before elections, and use of Islam for political purposes. The problem of extremism cannot be eliminated until and unless the Pakistani government will not take proper measure to cope with it.
