Group of Terrorism in Pakistan

It is difficult to determine how many terrorist groups are operating out of Pakistan. Most of these groups tend to fall into one of the five distinct categories
Sectarian:
Groups such as the Sunni Sipah-e-Sahaba and the Shia Tehrik-e-Jafria, which are engaged in violence within Pakistan;
Anti-Indian:
Terrorist groups that operate with the alleged support of the Pakistani military and the intelligence agency (ISI), such as the Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT), the Jaish-e-Muhammad (JeM), and the Harakat ul-Mujahadeen (HuM). This Backgounder profiles these organizations which have been active in Kashmir.
Afghan Taliban:
The original Taliban movement and especially its Kandahari leadership centered around Mullah Mohammad Omar, believed to be now living in Quetta,

Al-Qaeda and its affiliates:
The organization led by Osama bin Laden and other non-South Asian terrorists believed to be ensconced in the Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA). Islamic Jihad group, the Libyan Islamic Fighters Group and the Eastern Turkistan Islamic Movement are also located in FATA.
The Pakistani “Taliban”:
Groups consisting of extremist outfits in the FATA, led by individuals such as Baitullah Mehsud, the chieftain of the Mehsud tribe in South Waziristan, Maulana Faqir Muhammad and Maulana Qazi Fazlullah of the Tehrik-e-Nafaz-e-Shariat-e-Mohammadi (TSNM), and Mangal Bagh Afridi of the Lashkar-e-Islami in the Khyber Agency.

  2. Most of them are terrorist organization,their one and only agenda is to tarnish the image of islam and pakistan on international level.Indian assistance to them is also another factor that must be taken into account because they are using latest weapons and machinery of indian origin.
