(Ahlul Bayt News Agency) - Malik also told Pakistani lawmakers on Friday that 4,968 people were injured in the 1,331 bomb explosions last year.
Taliban militants have recently waged a campaign of bomb blasts in northwestern Pakistan, where government troops are fighting militants in the tribal region bordering Afghanistan.
In the last several years, Taliban also destroyed hundreds of schools, especially in the areas of Swat Valley and the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, previously known as the North-West Frontier Province, as part of their activities.
Pakistan has a history of unrest since it secured independence from Britain in 1947.
