A National Internal Security Policy (2013-2015) that will be presented to the cabinet in the next few days states that, more people are killed in the last two years than the last decade combined, Dawn.com reported on Sunday.

The national internal security policy is the guiding principle of internal security of Pakistan. It is a five-year policy plan that is renewed after every five year. A sneak peak on the policy document of 2013-2018 tells us that in 2011-2013 more people are killed in terror strikes in Pakistan as compared to the people killed during 2001-2010.
