Abstract
The study aimed to explore perceptions of public regarding military action in tribal areas of Pakistan with perspective of policies and practices of Inter Services of Public Relations (ISPR). In this connection, point of view of five hundred respondents i.e. students, teachers, journalists, and the category of general public was ascertained. On the whole, it was found that majority of the respondents were not in favor of military action in troubled areas of Pakistan. It was also suggested by majority of the respondents that policy of dialogue and reconciliation should be opted in order to ease the tension as well as for establishing peace. The findings also revealed that Public Relations department of armed forces of Pakistan should revise its PR policies in order to build up and sustain positive and soft image of Pakistan army which was tarnished due to military coups and Pro American Policies regarding war on terror
