General Raheel briefed the prime minister about the situation on the borders.
Last week, the government had signaled its willingness a military operation against terror groups operating in the country. The premier was told that the army was fully prepared for any tactical strike or even a full-fledged operation, to which Nawaz replied asking the army to prepare a complete operational plan.
The COAS also held a meeting with the Naval Chief of South Africa in Rawalpindi.
The two discussed ways to further promote relations between the armed forces of the two countries.
The South African Chief also met Chairman Joint Chief of Staff Committee General Rashid Mahmood and discussed professional matters.

Nawaz is best PM
@Dr. Khalid:
They will have to answer the lower court first, in this world before reaching the day of judgement.
Those who fight the monsters should see to it that they themselves do not become monsters If yoouu gaze for long into an abyss, the abyss gazes also in you.(Friedrich Nietzsche). The USA ignored this advice and watch what has become of them. Pakistan will drift into abyss..

@Aamir: That is his childhood friend, Reheel. Their families were neighbors and knew each other.
If war could bring peace, Afghanistan would be the most peaceful nation on earth today! Think it over, you will be answerable to Allah on the day of judgement for the loss of innocent lives and miseries this war will bring!
It would seem that only the Punjabi political and military leaders are obsessed to keep the united Pakistan by force if need be whereas KPK and Baluchistan provinces are just about fed up with the cacophony of the central Government and are preparing to expect the worst forcing them to leave the union, by following the footsteps of Bangla Desh.

Indecision, inertia and ineptitude define the climate of Islamabad and the state of mind of the third time Prime Minister who is currently leading a simple majority government. The buck does stop somewhere with someone and should stop at the PM House. Anybody home?
Security is under control now that YouTube is still blocked and proxies may soon be inaccessible too. Hooray!
Hope Gen Raheel takes control of this situation, the hesitation from Nawaz and Co will only cause more damage.
General sharif Hopefully will not make mistakes of General kiyani whose only aim was to pass the time.
@Major Iqbal:
Both leaders receive their orders from ther American adminstration through the Prime Minister foreign policy adviser!

"The two leaders discussed the security situation across the country."
With irresponsible journalism like this, no wonder Pakistan is always lurching from one crisis to another. While I am no fan of Nawaz Sharif, the above is an absolutely silly way to describe the meeting. This meeting was not one where "two leaders" discussed anything. It is that of a boss (PM) and his appointee (employee) meeting to discuss something.
Although Nawaz Sharif does not inspire one through his leadership, however the much talked about constitution does say he is the boss.
By discussing these important things on a more or less regular basis, we is becomes world superpower.
The lion of Punjab is dithering,hemming and hawing. With his trade mark indecisiveness, procrastination, and general inability to make firm hard and fast decisions. His exacerbation is deepening the severe crises. Bringing this country to the edge of the bottomless abyss.
If those who are suffering today in Pakistan were Punjabis, the Pakistan military would have fixed the situation by now.
Mian Nawaz Sharif is taking every stakeholder on board before decisive action on the 12year old war that has swallowed more than 50,000 Pakistanis. This is the first time that the military leadership of Pakistan is on the same page with political leadership, unlike in the past when the military was all-empowered due to it's long-serving chiefs (Musharraf = 9 years + Kiyani = 6 years) and still no conclusive results!
Discussion without a decision are just waste of time. NS can discuss everything but when it comes to decision he is just clueless.
