Military retired officers getting civilians jobs

[PK781]

there are capable civilians in whole country(specially our educated youth and middle aged persons), absolutely makes no sense to give military officers to double-dip. They want it all for themselves, such selfish people.

Also need to get rid of all types of age discriminations.

23,000 Civilian, Military Officers Hold Dual Nationality: Claims Opposition Leader​

Opposition leader Mahmood Khan Achakzai has claimed that around 23,000 civilian and military officers in Pakistan hold dual nationality, raising questions about disclosure requirements and accountability within state institutions.


Speaking in the National Assembly, Achakzai highlighted the issue of dual nationality among government officials and military officers. However, the figure he cited in his speech, which refers to economic corruption and administrative problems in the country, has not been independently verified as a current official count.

Addressing the session, he strongly criticized the imposition of emergency rule and governor’s rule in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and demanded that the government withdraw the decisions immediately.

Achakzai’s claim echoes figures reported in January 2022, when media reports cited a report submitted to the Supreme Court indicating that more than 22,000 government officers held dual

This is the reason why Pakistan stagnates as a country, why it is an economic basket case, it is because you have these rigid minded military dullards everywhere sitting wanting to get extra pay checks for nothing of value in return. Pakistan Army, is indeed an "army" with a country ...

Pakistan can only become an enterprising, dynamic, forwarding looking creative society, like Türkiye when this influence is curtailed and the smartest and brightest in Pakistan have a real opportunity to take Pakistan forward ...

Before these outlandish statements are distributed further, lets get the basics understood.

NO military personnel can EVER serve in the Pakistan armed forces holding dual-nationality.

The first thing you surrender as you join the service is your foreign passport. If you do not, that is grounds for court-martial and potentially being brought up on charges that are far more sinister including espionage if one hides their dual-citizenship.

So stating "military officers" is an outright lie by Achakzai and he should be taken to task for spouting essentially falsehood.

Second, of this 23,000 number, more than 95% would be civilians and the rest, "retired" military officers who have even sponsored by their family members etc.
