Pakistan Army is the 7th Largest Army in the World But Failed to Control Terrorist Even in Pakistan

After partition of India, Pakistan Army was formed with the Army personals who wished to join in the formation of new Pakistan Army. Since it inception, its strength was subsequently increased with the cooperation of China and USA mainly but also with other European countries of which the contribution of French is notable.

To strengthen naval force, Pakistan ordered four F-22P light frigates from China in 2005. In 2006, Pakistan Navy announced its requirement for three attacking submarines of modern technology. The Naval firms of French as well as German are likely to comply with the requirement.    

     

In Indo-Pakistani War of 1971, Indian Navy was in constant threat after the sinking of Indian frigate INS Khuri by the submarine PNS Hangor. The major threat was from the dreaded PNS Ghazi- the only long range submarine. But fortunately for Indian Navy, the Ghazi was sunk in the Bay of Bengal under unexplained circumstances.                         

             

Role of Pakistani Army in the Power Politics of Pakistan

Since the formation, the Pakistani army is taking part in the administration as well as in the formation of Pakistan government. Taking the advantage of chaos in the different political parties in Pakistan in the formation of government, the Pakistan army repeatedly seized power in the name of stabilizing Pakistan. In 1956, the political turmoil within the ruling party was as such that the speaker of the National Assembly was beaten to death in front of the assembly hall, when General Ayub Khan for the cause of nation agreed to take power and ruled Pakistan under military. General Yahya Khan came to power in 1969 and later in 1977, General Zia ul-Haq took over the power of administration of Pakistan and ruled as a dictator virtually unopposed until his death in 1988. Even though in the intermittent period the democracy prevailed in the country, the political muscle of the military is ever present. General Pervez Musharraf came to power in October 1999 in a bloodless coup overthrowing the elected government led by Nawaz Sharif. In the midst of unrest terrorist groups had been grown up unopposed in different places of Pakistan and to day Pakistan administration is under compulsion agreed to find terms of negotiation with terrorist organization in the Swait region.

    Has the world’s 1st Largest Army got successful to control Terrorists?? A army which is equiped with high tech.

    It is easy to hit your enemy when he is fighting face to face but it is hard to hit your enemy when he is hiding within your people because if you try to kill him, you might kill other ten innocent people.
