RAWALPINDI: The 79th Formation Commanders’ Conference, held here at GHQ on Tuesday (12th of April, 2022) took note of the recent propaganda campaign by some quarters to malign Pak Army and create division between the institution and society.
Chief of Army Staff (COAS) General Qamar Javed Bajwa presided the conference that was attended by Corps Commanders, Principal Staff Officers and all Formation Commanders of Pakistan Army.
The participants were briefed on professional matters, national security challenges and measures being undertaken to counter traditional and non-traditional threats.
The COAS expressed satisfaction over operational preparedness of formations and response mechanism to deal with emerging challenges.
The Forum paid rich tribute to the supreme sacrifices of officers and men to ensure security of borders and safety of masses.
“National Security of Pakistan is sacrosanct. Pakistan Army has always stood by the state institutions to guard it and always will, without any compromise”, the forum said.
The forum expressed complete confidence in leadership’s well considered stance to uphold the Constitution and rule of law, at all cost.
“Pakistan Army is aware of its responsibilities and shall continue to defend territorial integrity and sovereignty of Pakistan against all internal and external threats under all circumstances”, the COAS concluded.
It is pertinent to mention here that following the hi-drama that unfurled last week seeing Shehbaz Sharif perch at the pinnacle, left vacant due to unceremonious ouster of Imran Khan, the disgruntled politicians and their supporters resorted to criticize the military. Social Media Platforms, particularly twitter, were intensely used to malign the armed forces and its leadership. Moreover, slogans criticizing army were chanted during Pakistan-wide manifestations.
