Addressing the 178th corps commanders’ conference at the General Headquarters on Thursday, Chief of Army Staff (COAS) General Raheel Sharif said the entire nation was looking towards political and military leadership of Pakistan to take bold and meaningful decisions leading to stern action against terrorists and their sympathisers.

According to a press statement of the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR), Gen Sharif appreciated the resolve of the national political leadership shown during the All Parties Conference.

“Much wanted and precious wider political consensus achieved against terrorism is not lost to smaller issues,” the participants of the conference hoped as the COAS emphasised, “Key lies in all institutions joining hands for an effective and prompt implementation of a comprehensive National Action Plan (NAP) without having to lose any further time.”

Gen Sharif also reviewed the homework done by all concerned for execution of their respective tasks listed in the NAP and directed them to strictly follow timelines.

Participants of the conference expressed grief over the loss of innocent lives in Peshawar terrorist attack, solidarity with bereaved families and resolved not to stop operations till the elimination of the last terrorist.

The forum reviewed the overall internal and external security situation in Pakistan with particular focus on the ongoing operations. Recent upsurge in Intelligence Based Operations (IBOs) across Pakistan was also reviewed and its effects appreciated.
