Abstract
Since the beginning of war on terror world has realized not only the geostrategic
importance of Pakistan but also the fact that it can play a decisive
role in bringing end to this war for good. Mean while with every passing day
regional dynamics are becoming more intricate and complex, therefore new
challenges have emerged. Hence in order to deal with them Pakistan requires
extensive preemptive pragmatic approach. In war on terrorism Pakistan
became an important US ally and got this natural edge over India by being the
neighbor of Afghanistan. With the imminent US exit from Afghanistan and
emerging India-Afghanistan nexus, Pakistan is pondering over to make much
needed political paradigm shift which would bring long term internal stability
and would lessen the involvement of non-state actors in damaging the internal
and external security configurations of Pakistan.
