Former DG-Rangers, Lt.Gen Rizwan Akhtar to command the ISI.

[JonAsad]

will not happen Karachi is too complex a mess. Karachi will only be sorted out once the top leadership is finished of all stake holders in karachi.

World ranked No 1 Spy agency VS miscreants and stakeholders of Karachi-
i pretty much know how this will end if given permission- but dont know if not know then when?-

 

[Battle Axe]

thats a messed up hierarchy-
Even after serious threats to Karachi and Pakistan- with conditions worsening day by day- target killing et all- permission is still needed-

I agree but then you see that ISI can't really act on it's own accord. It's a civ mayter

command and intelligence?

So these people who are promoted are there to stay for 4 years?

I hope these are a good choice, as currently raheel seems to be. the next 2 years will function very good as raheal will have his chosen staff under key poistion.

Appointment of Lt. Gen. Rizwan as GD ISI came to many as a surprise. It is reported that the names of the two officers, Lt. Gen. Naveed Zaman (CC Lahore) and Lt. Gen. Javeid Iqbal (President National Defense University) were discussed in the civilian circles whereas Maj. Gen. Nazir Butt (commandment PMA) and Maj. Gen. Rizwan Akhter were considered favorite among the Army circles. It is said that Gen. Butt was among the most favorite for he has been appointed in the USA as military attaché and has working experience with the Americans.

What will be effect on Azadi March after this change in ISI????

 

[Farah Sohail]

Doesnt Rizwan Akhtar look tooo soft spoken for being a DG ISI? Whenever we have seen him speak...on media...he is too humble and soft spken. In se kon darey ga? Politicians will like him to have as DG ISI

 

[Sage]

Not a good pick i believe ...Naveed Mukhtar or Nasser Janjua were the right guys for the job ...Rizwan Akhtar hasn't got that much of a glowing resume too !

Have we seen Lt. Gen. Zaheer ever (maybe I missed) speaking on the media? Why would DG-ISI speak on the media? Its not his personality (soft spoken or otherwise) but his position that makes anti-state corrupt politician's pants wet.

Its not the question of qualification of any serving General in Pakistan Army, they are all extremely competent when it comes to professional training. Its only there approach to look at the politico-military equation that matters, and varies from General to General. It seems futile to say that he is a close ally of General Raheel since Pakistan Army has embedded discipline in its ranks. Every Army Chief will always pick a close ally to be the head of ISI since every chief has to implement the operational aspect of his policies, and ISI head is an integral part of such operational mechanism. However, I hope that he doesn't have any hidden agenda or varied conception of real-politics of Pakistan. Godspeed Pakistan
