Former prime minister Imran Khan’s proposal to extend the tenure of Chief of the Army Staff General Qamar Javed Bajwa was rejected by the Federal Government.
According to Reports Defence Minister Khawaja Asif said the discussion regarding the appointment of the army chief is ‘premature’. The Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chief had proposed an extension in the tenure of the army chief while claiming that the government was looking to appoint someone new for the post of COAS.
Imran Khan’s proposal was rejected by Defence Minister who said on Twitter that Khan had “stooped so low in his lust for power that he is now using the army chief’s appointment to deviate from the elections and politics.”
