NS what are you doing ? if you cannot protect our country step down .

Oh no not again!

Meanwhile Nawaz Sharif and co and meddling in others' affairs. First get your house in order.

What kind of security is Provincial government providing to its citizens in KPK??? At least now I hope that PTI realizes there are no good Talibans...

why again?

Terrorists are enemy of humanities........

RIP the innocents who lost their lives. Another sad day

:-( hamen apnon ne maara gerron main kahan dam tha.... Our NS has involved itself in security matters of other countries..

The sad truth is, we'll all be talking about yet another carnage and more senseless killings somewhere else, few days or weeks from now. Unfortunately, the government is either unable or unwilling to provide 'fool proof security' to its own citizens. But expect top notch strictest security for VIPs and visiting foreign cricket teams! What a convoluted sets of priorities we have! I couldn't give two cents about any VIP or cricket game if my own life and limb is at risk on a daily basis, and I cannot count on my government to protect me!??

These terrorist have no religion and no sense.They do not know why they kill innocent civilians and students. Any super power behind this to weaken Pakistan?

PM should resign as he have not constitutional / moral rights to remain in Power. he failed to keep a check on such incidents... he should resign. he failed to deliver whatever he promised, he should resign. he failed to do an iota for peace, he should resign.

NS still not interested in funding counter-terrorism including NACTA. Green and Orange lines more important than few lives.

Yet another sad situation and heart goes to the victims' and their families! Where is the NAP! Treating the symptoms, not the root causes, will not help.

Will it be last time when innocent blood of my compatriots is shed in Pakistan is the only question not to be ignored instead, on the contra, it must be answered by none but those who matter in our power corridor? Time and again innocent lives are lost right from east to west and north to south but still we have no plan of action to stop such killings. Each time blood is drained alike I notice that our VVIPs and VIPs condemn the attack, offer condolences and issue instructions for investigations duly punctuated with strict warning to those who committed the crime but a day after our officials just forgot it and wake up again to repeat the same exercise when we attacked next time. Who takes the lead? Iqbal Hadi Zaidi / Kuwait / zaidi4merdiplomat@hotmail.com

Yet another devastatingly sad day for Pakistan, far too many of them sadly. Why take away innocent lives of students - just no justifying of such heinous acts. There are no good or bad terrorists. Arrest them all. Why are so many in our cities walking around with total impunity when they have blood on their hands. We have only ourselves to blame for the inaction against some, instead of arresting them all. We must hold quick trials, bring justice to the 60,000 lost innocent lives; and for all the broken homes of those who survived these dastardly acts of violence, yet losing loved ones. Where is our empathy for those who suffer???? NO MORE KILLINGS, STOP IT.

If I was the Governor, CM of the province, or PM of Pakistan, I would resign out of shear embarrassment over this debacle. No amount of assurance or promises is going to assuage the anguish and suffering of those who lost a loved one yet again!

sad news

@Mahmood Mahmood, so agree with you.

Enough is enough! Government needs to do a stronger and decisive action against these terrorists or we shall have to pick the guns against this! It is unbearable to see our children dying at the hands of these loathsome people! Killing alone will not be enough! They need to be killed and dragged on the streets of Pakistan!

Go after the families of masterminds like Umar Mansoor. Arrest their male relatives. So that they can feel the heat. Sounds unjust, but there is no other way to put fear of God in their hearts.

Teach Love, not Hate. Teach tolerance, not bigotry. The faster it is done the better, else violence will lay waste to the nation.

Would not be surprised if the Indian hand is behind this.

Its sad. Army should complete the Zarb e Azb. I remember last time, Govt. hesitated in operation and then APS incident happened. and now we know that Sindh Govt. and Punjab Govt. are creating hurdles because the next phase is to capture the facilitators where Govt. is hurdle now and we all know why? and now this happened. COAS, Gen Raheel, reached at the hospital, where is PM?..

@tears & anger Why should he step down? He was brought to power by the people who already knew his careless attitude towards the country and more interest towards his personal business. This country needs to suffer the mistakes it always makes even knowing the future consequences of electing the same old tried and tested leaders until it learns.

What is the police doing in KPK. With APS school they conveniently blamed the army by saying army doesn't let us protect any thing in cantonments. Now what excuse does this so called most honest police has. I don't see schools or colleges get attacked like this in any other area of the country except KPK. The security apparatus in this province has become a joke after they keep getting hit in the same manner. They say fool me once shame on you fool me twice shame on me. Mr Khatak seems more interested in picking a fight with the centre instead of providing the people of the province an efficient security mechanism. I am supporter of PTI but have now developed serious doubts about their priorities. I don't see Army involvement in Punjab but it seems to be the only province where police seems to be keeping things in check.

Sick Mind....Evil Act...

Respect for you sir, Gen Raheel Shareef. Long live Pakistan Army.

I just want to know why would they kill innocent people? What do they achieve?

Keep your faith, these are the death throes of a dying ideology, general Raheel has got TTP by the throat, peace is right around the corner, stay united and support the Armed Forces. In TTP we have faced the combined power of all our enemies, internal and external and we are winning very easily considering who is behind TTP. Pak Fauj Zindabad. Sipah Salar Zindabad. Nasrunninallah Fathun Qareeb, InshaAllah.

@ibnarastoo stop conspiracy theory. India may want to destabilize pakistan, but they cant support any talibani faction due to fear of US relations. For us enemy is within our nation within our system

in a state televise address by Obama will be insecurity for decade in Afghanistan & Pakistan which rejected by Pakistan & occurred this

How to bell the cat!?

There are gaping holes in our security system some big enough to drive a semi-trailer through them.

@Mustafa R. lol

@tears & anger KPK is responsibility of Imran Khan. He would only do something if dharnas are not on his mind.

Heart goes out to these young causalities. May god give you all courage and peace in this testing time.

The timing and locations chosen by the terrorists seem to suit india and other external agendas very well to put more pressure on Pakistan and Blame us for everything....

First of all we must appreciate our law enforcement agencies, particularly Pak Army for the swift action. On the other hand we should not jump to criticize KPK or federal governments for not providing security to the population. The kind of enemy we are fighting against is invisible hidden among us. It is just not possible to put army on the gate of every school and mosque. Let each and every one of us look for this enemy hidden among us to establish lasting peace and security for ourselves.

while students were dying.. our beloved PM was in switzerland land and CM of KPK in london. what a shame

In both side of border, we are paying the cost, just this is for to keep us away from what we want, we want to be developed and highly educated nation, but no one interested just they are thinking for their own security and economic growth and they want to keep you in dark forever. I would like to share my deep condolence of my heart with the affected families. Bless you!

@tears & anger He is busy trying to diffuse the tension between his favorite Saudi Arabia and Iran. Please don't disturb him.

Coward act by Pak enemies...................... We are proud to our Pak Army.

Just a barbaric action for attention; and attention is what they get sadly... And rightfully so. What can be done to fix this?

Do not blame government about that . Blame TTP who is getting indulged in such brutality. It is quite impossible to supervise every sort of premises across the country. We all have to hold to tolerance and be assembled to fight terrorism.

I think it's very important to let the entire world know about who funded the terrorists involved in this attack . The ones killed were mere soldiers , the real culprits were the ones that supported them financially.

@Saeed Ahmed Disagree. Both federal and provincial governments should be taken to task and asked what measures they have taken after the APS incident to avert incidents like these. It is their job to ensure security of citizens and this is why people vote for them and not for slinging mud at each other.

@Ajamal No amount of funding Can stop it. It only takes one Mad person to do so. It happens in USA every year. In 2015 it happened almost 365 times in USA.

@Ailly What is the guarantee if any other come as PM and these incidents will not repeat again. No one can give any assurance because these people will never any sensitivity towards human life. They do what they want and target always innocent and poor people only ... I have never read anything about anywhere that any politician been attacked by these people yet may be the reason they have strong and all type of security facility but what about the innocent people, who is going to provide them security while they are paying all types of taxes and all to government. Govt of all countries should have to take some strong strategic steps to make safe to their country people. RIP to those innocent kids n people who lost their life.

Who are paying to these paid-killers...This is the time for action inside Lawless Afghanistan.

This sort of barbarism is being carried out even in the most advanced countries of Europe and America. Some Middle Eastern states are crumbling under pressure from Daesh, Alqaida and Taliban. We shouldn't make haste in conclusion of accusing our provincial, federal or military hierarchy. Having said that I think there is ample room in security arrangements in each and ever city of Pakitan. If our police force sets their direction right, facilitators of terrorists can easily be nabbed before their heinous acts. Under the present circumstances, police can be handed over to army for effective law enforcement, proactive and preemptive measures at least in wartime period. I am sure if police carryout combing search in cities honestly, they can unearth potential actors.

salute to pak army and all those who secrified their lives.

we should join hand against terrorism.

Very sad day.

@Aussie They are not stupid; they know where they are safe.

@J.Khan Point out those trouble makers in your local communities, believe me they live among us and lot of we know from there ideology , but we keep our mouth shut. Now will be the best time and get those black sheep out of our communities. Don't care if they are sunni, brealvi, wahab, tabligee or whatever they are.

very bad

oh no once again.........
