Chief of Army Staff General Ashfaq Parvez Kayani chaired a meeting of the Formation Commanders on Wednesday at General Headquarters (GHQ) - the last such gathering during his tenure. The army high command discussed the over all security situation particularly on Pak-India and Pak-Afghanistan borders, the war on terror and professional matters of the armed forces.
It was a special conference which was attended by corps commanders, principal staff officers and formation commanders. The event assumed special significance because of impending change in the army's command. General Kayani briefed the commanders on external and internal security environment and professional matters as he has prepared to bid farewell to the military after leading the army for six years, sources said.
Later, the CoAS held one-on-one meeting with Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif where the two discussed the political and security matters of the country. General Kayani will retire from his post on November 28, however his possible successor has not been finalised yet.
