Now when a large number of people are discussing about Slaps &amp; Punches delivered @ PM House on Last Saturday Night 09 April- We can not avoid commenting on that and we think that now it is safe as well.<\/strong><\/em><\/h4>\n<h4 dir=\"auto\">Helicopter I watched flying towards PM House. I was at Diplomatic Enclave that time &#8211; I also watched Route of Imran from within the Enclave between PM House and Bani Gala &#8211; As long as Slaps or Punches or Red Face stories are concerned, I don&#8217;t think it is fact.<\/h4>\n<h4 dir=\"auto\">Long ago I asked Maj Gen R Zaheer ul Islam Abbasi &#8221; Is it true that General Ayub slapped Maj Gen Sikander Mirza the then President to force him leave?&#8221; Late Maj Gen R Abbasi replied &#8221; These are just stories. Generals are gentlemen sophisticated persons. They do not do such things.&#8221;<\/h4>\n<h4 dir=\"auto\">But one thing is confirm that Imran has already done or he was about to do something that was highly inflammable for Military leadership. In the meanwhile, Fawad Ch issued statement that &#8221; The Change in Military Command is just a rumor. Government reject such news as baseless.&#8221;<\/h4>\n<h4 dir=\"auto\">It was only then the helicopter flew from Rawalpindi to Islamabad. I posted my video statement same time that &#8221; No is Yes and Yes is No mostly in Islamabad.&#8221;<\/h4>\n<h4 dir=\"auto\">These facts help us to reach a conclusion that the riders of the helicopter were certainly not welcome in PM House and they were not there to have chit chat with Imran. Definitely something unpleasant might have happened there. Shut up call as &#8220;Enough is Enough&#8221; at least if not slapping and punching.<\/h4>\n<h4 dir=\"auto\">When two generals visit you at odd hours with a warning and sticks in hands is enough to make you learn that time has come to retreat. Situation never goes to any further stage like what is being discussed here and there.<\/h4>\n<h4 dir=\"auto\">We can state without fear of contradiction that things do not go to that extent between such senior people. No such incident took place in PM House. Another reason to negate so called Slap and Punch story is that change of military leadership is not the sole business of PM. The President is also on board and no helicopter landed at Presidency that night.<\/h4>\n<h4 dir=\"auto\">Slaps and Punches are part of our culture and we most often see it around us on the roads, streets, markets and parking places. But reasonable and responsible persons like Generals and Prime Ministers need not resort to that physical exercise.<\/h4>\n<h4 dir=\"auto\">What is actually fearful and dreadful for us is &#8221; Who was replacing the incumbent military leadership?&#8221; The name is not unknown. Therefore , what is more concerning and disturbing is still behind the curtain. Military is the most disciplined institution of our country. No one can even think about going against the chief.<\/h4>\n<div class=\"cxmmr5t8 oygrvhab hcukyx3x c1et5uql o9v6fnle ii04i59q\">\n<h4 dir=\"auto\"><strong><em>A rift between military leadership and the government of Imran Khan on a particular lt general (Faiz)has been the talk of the town. Now when Imran Khan has left PM House, the issue of that general remains the same. It can damage the unity and prestige of the institution if it is not resolved asap. Otherwise it can come up again in the shape of a clear clash. That will certainly be a big Slap and Punch to our national security.<\/em><\/strong><\/h4>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tazeen Akhtar Editor Saturday Night Special &#8211; was series of PTV long ago in which thrilling English movies were aired after 11 PM.
