I believe Pakistan will be better off modifying the Constitution to reflect the real power balance in Pak polity. It may seem distasteful at the beginning, but it will be for the greater good.
IMHO, the entire chaos starts because the COAS invariably seeks a second term in office (with a desire to serve the country as long as possible) and for that, he needs the consent of the PM. In turn, he needs a pliable PM, so he is forced to intervene in politics. Therefore, what is needed and is certainly doable is to make the Pak military a completely autonomous institution. So that neither the COAS nor the PM have either any opportunity or need to intervene in each other's domain.
1. The COAS can be made the Chief of Defence Staff in charge of not only the three forces but also paramilitary forces and the intelligence agencies. A committee under the CDS can be responsible for all recruitment, appointments and promotions in the three services.
2. A fixed share of the budget should be assured to the Armed Forces (including intel and paramilitary) and they can spend it without civilian oversight.
3. The paramilitary forces and theiri deployment in Pakistan Azaad Kashmir, Balochistan and KPK should be controlled by the CDS.
4. The CDS should decide how many 5-year terms he wants to serve as the CDS.
In return for this, the Fauj must stop interfering in civilian matters and politics.
