Pakistan Army Chief: Pakistan Army Chief Qamar Javed Bajwa has said that he will retire in the next five weeks and will not seek extension. This information has been given by Pakistani Geo News. Qamar Javed Bajwa is going to retire in November 2022. After this statement of Bajwa, it became clear that he is no longer the Chief of Army Staff, so now all eyes are on who will be the next Army Chief.
On the other hand, PTI chairman Imran Khan had said that an election should be held in the month of October so that political opponents cannot choose the successor of the current army chief General Bajwa. Behind this, Imran believes that he can win if new polls are conducted and this can prevent his opponents from appointing a flexible army chief. Imran alleges that the government wants to make an army chief of its choice, so that it can cover up its corruption.
