Bilawal Bhutto's father Asif Ali Zardari holds the presidency in the presidency.
Pakistan's army chief Asim Munir is now eyeing the President's chair. This claim has been made by senior journalist of Pakistan Ejaz Ahmed. According to Ahmed, Munir now wants to take constitutional institutions directly under control by becoming President. This claim of Ahmed has stirred up the political corridors of Pakistan.
There are 2 reasons for this- the first reason has started discussing for the first 18 years of the army chief coming to this chair. In 2007, Pakistan's politicians and small officers of the army together removed the then President Pervez Musharraf from the post. Musharraf came to the President's chair as he was a military chief.
The second reason is that Asif Ali Zardari is to be on the President's chair. Zardari is the father of PPP President Bilawal Bhutto. PPP is also an ally of the ruling PML (Nawaz) party.
Why is Munir discussion about becoming President?
1. Army Chief Aseem Munir was promoted in Pakistan soon after Operation Sindoor. Munir has a field marshal chair. Munir is the second army chief who has received the chair of field marshal. Munir was promoted by Shahbaz Sharif to keep his chair safe.
2. The power of Pakistan is indirectly with the army chief. Army Chief Munir recently met Donald Trump and also indicated it. For the first time, an Army Chief of Pakistan met the US President alone. It is being said that now Munir also wants the post of President with him.
Silent in PML-N, PPP silent
The claim of Ejaz Ahmed has caused panic in PML-N. Pakistan's Home Minister Mohsin Naqvi has told reporters that this is just a guess. I do not know about any such incident. Everything is fine in Pakistan right now.
Bilawal Bhutto's party is PPP silent. PPP is not saying anything on this issue right now. What is the decision next to the PPP leader is eyeing him.
