    The Pakistan Army is at war with its own people in Balochistan and FATA. The fragmented Pakistan with internal weakness and external threats is unable to refuse the Americans Orders, to get its legitimate right of Kashmir, to secure its borders with Afghanistan. Foreign investors, especially the overseas Pakistanis are examining the fear factors in opening new ventures due to corrupt financial institutions and violent groups.

    In the past decade the entire nation of Pakistan has suffered a lot. The political leaders have not lived up to their expectations. At the same time, Pakistan has also been a victim of two natural disasters that has played a role in economic and political failure. For example, according to a World Bank report, the floods in Pakistan have affected more than 20million people. Moreover, the disaster destroyed 1.6million homes and left thousands of agriculture land damaged ("Pakistan floods 2010," 2011). Similarly, another report by the World Bank explains that, the earthquake in Pakistan left 2.8million people dead and over half a million without income ("Pakistan earthquake, a," 2006). In such catastrophes, government has failed to support the people of Pakistan financially and it left the Pakistanis frustrated. This frustration has forced them to demand for a political change in the government who would listen to them and fulfill their basic necessities. Moreover, Pakistanis believe that change is only possible if Imran Khan and his party called Movement of Justice (PTI) comes into power. Imran Khan’s political party coming into power is a contemporary global issue because it creates conflict among other parties, it doesn’t guarantee an immediate change in Pakistan because of the country’s current state of political instability, and affects the nation’s attitude towards the war on terror.…
