The National Action Plan is an action plan that was established by the Government of Pakistan in December 2014 to crack down on terrorism and to supplement the ongoing anti-terrorist offensive in Federally Administered Tribal Areas.[1] It is considered as a major coordinated state retaliation following the deadly 2014 Peshawar school attack.[2][3][4][5] The plan received unprecedented levels of support and co-operation across the country's political spectrum, inclusive of the federal and provincial governments.
It combines foreign and domestic policy initiatives aimed to crack down on and eventually eliminate proscribed organisations across the country. The plan was provided as the framework for the Twenty-first Amendment to the Constitution of Pakistan which established speedy trial military courts for offences relating to terrorism. It has also led to the resumption of capital punishment and mandatory re-verification through fingerprint recognition of all subscribers on mobile telephony.[6]
The National Action Plan authorises the Foreign, Finance, and other ministerial departments to reach out to the friendly Muslim countries to clamp down on financiers of sectarian and terrorist networks operating against Pakistan.[7]
