Top generals briefed on national and regional security situations: Pak army
Islamabad: Pakistan's top generals were briefed on the national and regional security situations on Wednesday, the army said.
Army chief General Qamar Javed Bajwa chaired a meeting of the Corps Commanders in Rawalpindi, wherein the generals were briefed on national and regional security situations, it said.
"Noting the Indian aggression, (the) forum resolved to continue thwarting Indian designs," the army said.
The commanders also expressed satisfaction on the continued reduction in incidents of violence across the country, gradual positive effects of the ongoing Afghan peace process along the western border, and resolved to keep supporting the normalization process through national institutions.
The forum also discussed the army's ongoing support to the government against COVID-19, the locust threat, and the polio campaign within the available resources.
Wednesday's meeting came a day after the spy agency - the Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) - briefed the top military leadership about the situation on the Line of Control.
Chairman Joint Chiefs of Staff Committee General Nadeem Raza, Army chief General Bajwa, Naval Chief Admiral Zafar Mehmood Abbasi, and Air Chief Marshal Mujahid Anwar Khan were briefed by ISI chief Lt Gen Faiz Hamid at the agency's headquarters in Islamabad on Tuesday.
The powerful army, which has ruled Pakistan for more than half of its 70 plus years of existence, has hitherto wielded considerable power in the matters of security and foreign policy.
