Revenge killing and tribal conflicts are key obstacles for  achieving sustainable development in tribal areas, and they also deprive tribes from perusing their university education, especially when these conflicts extend to include universities, public facilities, cities, public markets and roads.

Further, tribal societies are leading a life of isolation and there is no chance for societal participation prompted by the barriers created by the inherited conflicts and customs, particularly when some tribal conflicts have gone beyond the limit and give no consideration to norms that tribes adopt to resolve their problems.

Namely, and because of the development of laws,  tribal customs have started to vanish, as chaos and arbitrariness have started to replace tribal customs, and people now are settling accounts at any place without giving no attention to their outcomes.

Such are mainly caused by the lack of effective programs and official measures that could put a limit to such irresponsible and criminal acts especially when they have caused security, psychological, social and economic barriers before different society factions including workers, students, farmers, sheikhs, politicians, etc. These acts are to blame for the deterioration or the absence of basic services in the tribal areas.

Revenge killings hinder students from perusing their high education and cause them psychological problems. Some of them have been victims for revenge killings in universities, colleges or businesses, especially when they risked their lives to continue their education.

Such acts take place under the complete silence of civil society organizations, political forces, official and private media, etc.

Most observers stress the national and private revenge killing commissions have not been active enough, especially at the levels of awareness.

International agencies interested in this issue have tried to pay attention to revenge killing issue through the program adopted by the National Democratic Institute (NDI); however, the program is still in its infancy.

Tribal conflicts pose risks to thousands of people, as they are  a source for tribal violence that results in terrorism.

Several local and tribal dignitaries as well as intellectuals assure that all attempts to terminate revenge killings could be ineffective in case those interested do not address the reasons behind such problems, and find the right mean by which they can overcome these problems.

They stress that more attention should be given to awareness efforts through devising media programs and plans, aiming to rid of all passive phenomena which posed a risk to development.
