The target of the study was three busy bazaars of Peshawar city namely Qissa khwani bazaar, Sadder bazaar and Karkhano market for the collection of primary data. A sample size of 379 respondents out of total was drawn by the formula devised by Sekran (2003) through systematic sampling procedure. Data were collected through a well-structured questionnaire covering both the study variables. The association of independent variable (military operations) and dependent variable (minimization of terrorist threats) were cross tabulated by using Chi-square (x2) statistics. The study findings concluded that a highly significant association (P=0.000), was found between military operations should continue in all militancy areas and minimization of security threats. Likewise, a significant relationship (P=0.000) was disclosed between military operations have archived their objectives and minimization of security threats. In contrast, a nonsignificant association was disclosed between the parameters of independent variable( military operations) such as that operations should be expanded to settle areas, military operations have saved the lives of the people, operations are the only solution to eradicate militancy and more efforts are needed to safe the country and minimization of security threats(dependent variable). Commencing military operations in those areas where uncontradictory proofs of militancy were found in order to give safety to the lives of masses was suggested as a policy recommendation.
