Last blog : Sectarian conflict in Pakistan.
This contention has been pervasive among the two organizations Shia and Sunni principally. It is concur that these outfits have been made in response to treachery of the primitive framework principally in lower Punjab and other such territories, where this medieval framework has its slant toward Ahl-e-Tashee organization (Shia). In response to this foul play and illegitimate utilization of force against the lower class activist associations have risen to oppose the dominion of unduly overwhelming factions of the adversary bunch. The savage responses by both groups against one another however have additionally been condemned as socially ruinous.
Communal-ism, religious intolerance and the sectarian violence are scourge of any general public and offensive to the teachings of Islam. The word Islam implies peace and amicability and prohibits bias and religious obsession. It shows liberality and resistance even to the devotees of alternate religions.
Lamentably, Pakistan has never possessed the capacity to manufacture a genuine country. Thus the vast majority of the individuals who took more prominent pride in their ethnicity as opposed to national personality now see themselves as fitting in with a faction before being a Pakistani and have no doubts about disguising the sectarian clashes on show somewhere else on the planet.

An important distinction needs to be made about your post. While it may be reasonable to argue that Pakistan has struggled in the creation of a nation, Pakistan is very much a genuine 'country' and did in fact achieve that goal in 1947. A nation and country imply two different realities.
The reason why there are cases of ethnic and religious nationalisms leading to intolerance in Pakistan is precisely because of a lack of a cohesive political narrative. The narrative taught to Pakistanis through government regulated books on primary and secondary levels is far from the reality of what occurred and gives rise to counter narratives to fill up the gaps in the narrative.
You raised an important topic but I just want to add that Islam is the religion of peace .. these conflicts are the result of different perspectives that people have made, Islam never taught to fight or kill each other for its sake.
