Chief of Army Staff (COAS) General Ashfaq Parvez Kayani Friday said that it is the duty of the Armed Forces to maintain adequate capabilities and readiness to fulfil the tasks assigned. While addressing the participants of Command and Staff Course, during his visit to Command and Staff College Quetta, the COAS said that for meaningful and sustainable progress, a nation has to strike the right balance between the requirements of development and defence.
He said that no Army operates in a vacuum, rather it draws upon the support of the nation to conduct its tasks in a manner that it contributes to the fulfilment of national polices, interests and aspirations.
He stressed upon the participants to serve the nation through excellence in profession, dedication and commitment. Earlier, on arrival at Quetta, the COAS was received by Lieutenant General Muhammad Alam Khattak, Commander Quetta Corps.
