India has often advised Pakistan from the UN Council forum to shun the path of terrorism. Recently, India's External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar had told Pakistan that if they don't leave the path of terrorism, they will be ruined. He brought up Hillary Clinton's remark that "people who keep snakes in their backyards it bites them too". Pakistan, however, shoots itself in the foot by not following India's advice.

Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan's aim is to form a Sharia-based government in Pakistan. The TTP also has links with major terrorist organisations such as the Afghan Taliban, al Qaeda, ISIS Khorasan and the Haqqani Network.


In the year 2014, when the Pakistan Army launched a major operation against TTP, it was financially stronger than it is today. But now the economic condition of Pakistan is not such that it can fight a long war against TTP.
