The internal story of the meeting of the Parliamentary Committee on National Security came to light. According to sources, after the briefing in the meeting, the Army Chief himself answered the questions. The first question was asked by Mushahid Hussain, the second by Shahbaz Sharif, the third by Bilawal Bhutto and the fourth by Shah Mehmood Qureshi.
The purpose of the briefing was to take political ownership of the country’s security policy.
According to sources, the atmosphere in the meeting was good and there was no bitterness on any issue.
On the occasion, PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari asked the Army Chief to pardon PTM MNA Ali Wazir, to which the Army Chief said that he would not tolerate criticism on the Pakistan Army, so Ali Wazir would also have to apologize. Nawaz Sharif and Ayaz Sadiq also criticized me but we tolerated it. Meanwhile, when Mohsin Dawar tried to get up and speak, the Speaker stopped him, to which General Qamar Javed Bajwa said that you should speak openly. You call on the army to intervene in the elections. If we had intervened, how would you have won?
Speaker National Assembly Asad Qaiser said that the issue of Kashmir and security situation is to be briefed, a few days later a meeting should be called again to which the Army Chief said that we have no objection, of course to hold a meeting on the weekend.
