In the first nine months of 2013 as many as 1,047 terrorist attacks were carried out, leaving 1,490 dead and 4,360 injured.
The year 2010 was bloodier and saw a lot more attacks. Some 1, 956 people were killed and 5,347 injured in the 2,061 acts of terror recorded that year. In 2011 there were fewer attacks and fewer casualties.
Details of foreign exchange
The head of the Senate Standing Committee on Interior, Senator Talha Mahmood, directed the information technology ministry to find ways to utilise the Rs60 billion reserved under the Universal Support Fund for law enforcement agencies.
He directed Director Telecom Haroon Javed to convey the Senate panels recommendations to the concerned authorities regarding transfer of funds to the interior ministry.
