6. INTRODUCTION Pakistan got independence from British occupation and separated from Hindu populated areas on the basis of religion , which Hindus have been opposing. That rift continues and both countries have fought few major wars apart from many subversive activities . Separation is still not complete as Kashmir, Sir Creek and Siachin remains disputed territory, for which both countries can go for a major war again. Arms race between Pakistan and India led to nuclear weapons which created further problems as US have been opposing and imposing number of restrictions on Pakistan . Biggest problem now is terrorism , which has put Pakistan in a state of war, and enemies have concealed in local population . Poor leadership resulted in weak institutions which in turn effected mental awareness, economy, education, poor industries specially microelectronics, law and order situation etc. Security aspects can be divided in two main spheres i.e. External Threats and in Internal Threats. 6
