When answering questions if I am right Maj General Asif Ghafoor said that Pakistan is raising new troops. I think both Army and Para Military size is being increased.

I also noticed that..
Dgispr want to mention it In passing but don't want to draw attention.
I Think it's local force to man the western border. Local phushtoon and Baloch force to defend western border..
The fence we have have built needs constant lookout.

RAWALPINDI: Chief of Army Staff (COAS) General Raheel Sharif on Monday visited Pakistan Military Academy (PMA) at Kakul.

The visit was focused on reviewing the current training regime for cadets and PMA’s capacity enhancement projects including inauguration of fourth Pakistan Battalion, an Inter Services Public Relations (ISPR) news release here stated.

So how much increase in numbers we will have ....and whats the final numbers army wants

Honorable Sir,

Gen Raheel Shareef retired almost 2 years ago. Gen Bajwa is current the COAS

I think army size needs to go down to save money rather than going up
Pakistan has 1 Million plus army what's the point of such huge army?

Balochistan quota is open for new recruitment currently and new defensive positions on cards as well.

 

[proud.pakistani]

I think we need to focus on civil defence so that each and every citizen should be able to defend motherland when the need arises.

Pakistan Army is already quite large. What is needed is improved fighting power thru better training, leadership & equipment and improved logistics. Target should be to turn PA into a ‘Leaner & Meaner’ fighting machine.

It has been clearly demonstrated in the modern wars that air power has a huge influence on the outcome of a battle. IMHO need of the day is the modernization of PAF's fighter fleet. Then make Pak Navy into a more potent force.

Army LID is the only increase, which is for security of CPEC, the raising of FC for Balochistan and KPK is for border management.

and an offensive mind set.

What's the total active serving troop strength, I keep seeing and hearing different things. Pakistan also has 215 million people, an increase is probably right.

Hopefully it's just defensive forces for the Iranian and Afghan borders incase of eastern escalation, must be kept at minimum cost and rely on strong points where as some degree of anti tank equipment should be given to the ones at the Iranian border,
The godamn PAF needs it's bloody fifth gen now with those rafales and potentially make in India f16 as the now called f21 which is even better than block 70 and has AR
