LAHORE: Former Prime Minister and Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz leader Shahid Khaqan Abbasi said that issue of appointment of new Army chief could go to court if name of a competent officer was not on list of senior generals, which would be sent to Prime Minister House. Speaking exclusively to private TV channel, he said that Prime Minister can appoint new Army Chief even if summary doesn't come or he can also summon summary with new names.
"Issue could be challenged in country if competent names would not be included in list of generals," he warned. It is responsibility of defense secretary or minister of defense to ensure that there is no such situation that matter is challenged in court.
