'''Radd-ul-Fasaad''' ({{lang-ur|{{Nastaliq|رد الفساد}}}}) translates to "''elimination of strife''". The term "Radd" means "rejection", while "Fasaad" is synonymous with the Arabic word "Fitna," which refers to "civil strife" or "discord". This nomenclature reflects the operation's objective of rejecting and eradicating the turmoil and instability caused by terrorism and extremist elements within society. The choice of this name underscores a commitment to restoring peace and security in Pakistan.

== Background ==
In February 2017, Pakistan witnessed multiple suicide attacks orchestrated by the militant group [[Jamaat-ul-Ahrar]] under '''[[Operation Ghazi]]'''. Media reports confirmed the group’s responsibility for these assaults. The intensity of these attacks diminished following the killing of [[Abdul Rashid Ghazi]], a key figure associated with the group, during '''[[Operation Sunrise]]''' – a military action by Pakistani security forces at Islamabad’s Lal Masjid. 
Subsequently, other extremist factions escalated violence nationwide, prompting the Pakistani government to initiate ''Operation Radd-ul-Fasaad'' to counter terrorism. On 22 February 2021 ([[Indian National Calendar|INC]]: 03 Saura Phālguna 1942), marking the fourth anniversary of this operation, authorities unveiled a comprehensive database documenting incidents of terrorism, military operations, and casualties recorded during the campaign. This repository serves as a detailed archive of security developments during that period.
