PML-N Vice-president Maryam has been critical of General Hameed due to his alleged role as the ISI chief in supporting former prime minister Imran Khan and his Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI), though the Army always rejected such allegations. The nation looks at the Army for the unity and security of Pakistan. So it is important that the Army chief is a person who is worthy and flawless so that people salute the Pakistan Army, Maryam, the daughter of former prime minister Nawaz Sharif, said at a press conference when asked about the defence minister's remarks. Incumbent Chief of Army Staff (COAS) Gen Qamar Javed Bajwa will retire by the end of November this year. General Faiz Hameed served as the ISI chief from June 16, 2019, to October 19, 2021, and is currently posted as the Peshawar Corps Commander. Her comments followed after she told a public rally in the Fateh Jang area of Punjab province last week that Imran Khan used the former spy chief to “throttle” his opponents. We know that he (Hameed) wasn't your eyes and ears, rather he was your (Khan’s) hands through which you throttled your political opponents, she said. Earlier, Khan in a recent podcast appearance said the intelligence chief was the eyes and ears of the government and his difference with the Army began when he wanted Hameed to continue as the ISI chief while he was posted as Corps Commander Peshawar last year. Defence Minister Asif in his interview with the BBC Urdu this week had said that If his (Hameed) name is on the seniority list, it will definitely be considered (for Army chief). Separately, former president Asif Ali Zardari in his press talk on Wednesday also passed critical remarks about General Hameed by saying that “he (Hameed) has been sidelined” when posted out of the spy agency. Later Zardari said that his sidelines remarks were being quoted out of context. But the Army in a statement on Thursday said the Peshawar Corps was a prominent formation and its leadership was “in highly professional hands”. It said that remarks against the Corps Commander Peshawar Lt Gen Hameed by a “senior politician” were “extremely unfit”. “Such statements negatively impact the morale and honour of the army and its leadership,” the Army said.","portalUser":{"id":"rgkwRLMU8bE","name":"PTI","username":"presstrustofindia","photo":"https://ik.imagekit.io/o8plo3y5if/opoyi_WQDSboZhJ.jpg","role":8},"opinions":[],"liveblogStatus":true,"lastReply":null,"replyUser":null,"userMentions":[],"lastCommentMentions":null,"lastReplyMentions":null,"checkIn":null,"keywords":"Army,ISI,Khan,Pakistan,Maryam,Hameed,Maryam Nawaz,Defence,Khawaja Asif,Lt Gen Faiz Hameed's","originalPublishedOn":"2022-05-12T15:09:05.350810+00:00"}},{"node":{"id":"woDpk7nIo4tw","slug":"english/pak-pm-shehbaz-sharif-meets-older-brother-nawaz-in-london","title":"Pak PM Shehbaz Sharif meets older brother Nawaz in London","postType":1,"coverMedia":null,"coverCaption":null,"reactionStats":"{\"like_count\":0,\"heartbreak_count\":0,\"laugh_count\":0,\"sad_count\":0,\"angry_count\":0}","updatedOn":"2022-05-11T18:42:05.278773+00:00","highlightSummary":null,"highlightSummaryFlag":0,"breakingSponsored":0,"coverMediaType":null,"reactionsCount":0,"commentsCount":0,"lastComment":null,"isUpdated":false,"lastCommentUser":null,"trustScore":1,"fakeTrust":0,"content":"{\"time\": 1652294524.506927, \"blocks\": [{\"type\": \"paragraph\", \"data\": {\"text\": \" Islamabad, May 11 (PTI) Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif on Wednesday met his older brother and former premier Nawaz Sharif in London for consultation on key political and economic issues facing the country.\"}}, {\"type\": \"paragraph\", \"data\": {\"text\": \" Shehbaz accompanied by a group of senior leaders of his Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) party traveled to London on a private trip, according to his party members.\"}}, {\"type\": \"paragraph\", \"data\": {\"text\": \" His 10-member delegation consisted of Defence Minister Khawaja Asif, Information Minister Marriyum Aurangzeb, Planning Minister Ahsan Iqbal, Power Minister Khurram Dastagir, Finance Minister Miftah Ismail and Railways Minister Khawaja Saad Rafiq, among others.\"}}, {\"type\": \"paragraph\", \"data\": {\"text\": \" A video clip showed the elder Sharif patting his younger brother.

A video clip showed the elder Sharif patting his younger brother. A photo of the prime minister hugging his brother was also shared. Another photo showed the two Sharifs chairing the meeting. However, no details of the meeting or its agenda have been shared so far. The PML-N delegation dashed to London as political and economic pressure mounted on the government which is expecting organised protests by ousted premier Imran Khan who is demanding early elections. The bigger concern is the deteriorating economic situation and inability to control the prices of daily items used by common citizens. Khan lashed out at the trip, saying at a public meeting on Tuesday that the entire cabinet was going to meet a corrupt and convicted person, that too on taxpayers’ money. Earlier, PM Shehbaz Sharif, 70, departed for London via a British Airways flight shortly after midnight on Tuesday. He is expected to stay in London for two to three days. Three-time premier Nawaz Sharif, 72, against whom several corruption cases were launched by the government of Khan, had left for London in November 2019 after the Lahore High Court granted him four-week permission to go abroad for his heart treatment.

The US government has bluntly denied the allegations multiple times. PML-N leader Shehbaz, 70, assumed the office of the prime minister on April 11. The term of the current House ends in August, 2023. Nawaz was removed from power in 2017 after a decision by the Supreme Court against him. He was later convicted separately in two corruption cases in 2018. Sharif was given a 10-year prison sentence for owning property in London called the Avenfield case, but was released two months later when the court suspended the sentences, pending a final judgement. But in December 2018 he was jailed for corruption again, this time for seven years, related to his family's ownership of steel mills in Saudi Arabia called the Al-Azizia Steel Mills case. In both cases, he failed to provide the money trail to procure these foreign assets. Sharif was in jail when allowed to go to London for four weeks for medical treatment but never came back.","portalUser":{"id":"rgkwRLMU8bE","name":"PTI","username":"presstrustofindia","photo":"https://ik.imagekit.io/o8plo3y5if/opoyi_WQDSboZhJ.jpg","role":8},"opinions":[],"liveblogStatus":true,"lastReply":null,"replyUser":null,"userMentions":[],"lastCommentMentions":null,"lastReplyMentions":null,"checkIn":null,"keywords":"Shehbaz Sharif,Nawaz,London,Nawaz Sharif,PML-N,Pakistan,Defence,Khawaja Asif,Marriyum Aurangzeb,Ahsan Iqbal","originalPublishedOn":"2022-05-11T18:42:04.530339+00:00"}},{"node":{"id":"i5wi7TWTRg0c","slug":"english/defence-minister-responded-positively-to-transfer-of-700-acres-land-in-belagavi-ktaka-cm","title":"Defence Minister responded positively to transfer of 700 acres land in Belagavi: K'taka CM","postType":1,"coverMedia":null,"coverCaption":null,"reactionStats":"{\"like_count\":0,\"heartbreak_count\":0,\"laugh_count\":0,\"sad_count\":0,\"angry_count\":0}","updatedOn":"2022-05-11T14:09:05.445217+00:00","highlightSummary":null,"highlightSummaryFlag":0,"breakingSponsored":0,"coverMediaType":null,"reactionsCount":0,"commentsCount":0,"lastComment":null,"isUpdated":false,"lastCommentUser":null,"trustScore":1,"fakeTrust":0,"content":"{\"time\": 1652278144.608321, \"blocks\": [{\"type\": \"paragraph\", \"data\": {\"text\": \" New Delhi/Bengaluru, May 11 (PTI) Karnataka Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai on Wednesday said Defence Minister Rajnath Singh has responded positively regarding transfer of 700 acres of land in Belagavi, which is currently under the control of the latter's ministry.\"}}, {\"type\": \"paragraph\", \"data\": {\"text\": \" The state government needs this land for an IT park, which it intends to develop in Belagavi.\"}}, {\"type\": \"paragraph\", \"data\": {\"text\": \" The issue was raised during the Chief Minister's meeting with the Defence Minister in New Delhi on Wednesday.\"}}, {\"type\": \"paragraph\", \"data\": {\"text\": \" \\\"About 700 acres of grassland in Belagavi is under the control of the Defence ministry.

He was evacuated to the naval base after a series of attacks on his supporters left at least eight people dead. Mahinda Rajapaksa, along with his wife and family, fled his official residence - Temple Trees - and took shelter at the naval base in Trincomalee. Throughout the night on Monday, the police fired teargas shells to quell mobs trying to enter the Temple Trees residence. In the early hours of Tuesday, police fired tear gas and warning shots to hold back mobs as security forces moved Mahinda and his family out of his official residence. As word spread about Mahinda's reported presence at the Trincomalee Naval Base, people started a protest near the key military facility. A curfew is in force across the island nation after mobs burned down the ancestral home belonging to the ruling Rajapaksa family amid mounting anger for their mishandling of the economy, leading to the island nation's worst economic crisis. Sri Lanka is facing its worst economic crisis since gaining independence from Britain in 1948. The crisis is caused in part by a lack of foreign currency, which has meant that the country cannot afford to pay for imports of staple foods and fuel, leading to acute shortages and very high prices. Thousands of demonstrators have hit the streets across Sri Lanka since April 9 seeking the resignation of President Gotabaya and his brother Mahinda, as the government ran out of money for vital imports; prices of essential commodities have skyrocketed and there are acute shortages in fuel, medicines and electricity supply.","portalUser":{"id":"rgkwRLMU8bE","name":"PTI","username":"presstrustofindia","photo":"https://ik.imagekit.io/o8plo3y5if/opoyi_WQDSboZhJ.jpg","role":8},"opinions":[],"liveblogStatus":true,"lastReply":null,"replyUser":null,"userMentions":[],"lastCommentMentions":null,"lastReplyMentions":null,"checkIn":null,"keywords":"Mahinda Rajapaksa,Sri Lanka,Trincomalee,Defence,Kamal Guneratne,Sri Lanka People's Party,the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam,Gotabaya Rajapaksa,Guneratne,Army","originalPublishedOn":"2022-05-11T09:36:06.615989+00:00"}},{"node":{"id":"tNVK4VoABfKX","slug":"english/lankas-ex-pm-and-once-strongman-mahinda-rajapaksa-being-protected-at-trincomallee-naval-base","title":"'Lanka’s ex-PM and once strongman Mahinda Rajapaksa being protected at Trincomallee naval base'","postType":1,"coverMedia":null,"coverCaption":null,"reactionStats":"{\"like_count\":0,\"heartbreak_count\":0,\"laugh_count\":0,\"sad_count\":0,\"angry_count\":0}","updatedOn":"2022-05-11T09:00:05.463421+00:00","highlightSummary":null,"highlightSummaryFlag":0,"breakingSponsored":0,"coverMediaType":null,"reactionsCount":0,"commentsCount":0,"lastComment":null,"isUpdated":false,"lastCommentUser":null,"trustScore":1,"fakeTrust":0,"content":"{\"time\": 1652259604.734699, \"blocks\": [{\"type\": \"paragraph\", \"data\": {\"text\": \"Colombo, May 11 (PTI) Sri Lanka\\u2019s ex-Prime Minister and former strongman Mahinda Rajapaksa is being protected at the Trincomallee naval base, Defence Secretary Kamal Guneratne said on Wednesday.\"}}, {\"type\": \"paragraph\", \"data\": {\"text\": \" The 76-year-old former president and prime minister is being given protection amidst nationwide protests over the government\\u2019s failure to tackle the worst economic crisis.\"}}, {\"type\": \"paragraph\", \"data\": {\"text\": \" \\u201cHe (Mahinda Rajapaksa) was evacuated to the Trincomallee naval dockyard,\\u201d Guneratne told reporters in an online briefing.\"}}, {\"type\": \"paragraph\", \"data\": {\"text\": \" Mahinda Rajapaksa resigned as prime minister on Monday amid unprecedented economic turmoil in the country, hours after his supporters attacked anti-government protesters, prompting authorities to impose a nationwide curfew and deploy Army troops in the capital.

I am aware that adequate progress has been made towards the study on maritime theatre command, he told the commanders.According to the plan, each of the theatre commands will have units of the Army, the Navy and the Air Force and all of them will work as a single entity looking after security challenges in a specified geographical territory under an operational commander.Coming to the prevailing security environment in the world, the ongoing Russia and Ukraine conflict has once again highlighted that being self-reliant without dependencies is a vital necessity, Singh said.In the last few years, the government has been focusing on making India a hub of defence manufacturing.The defence minister said the delivery of the first indigenously built aircraft carrier, Vikrant, would be another milestone event.The ship has already successfully completed three sea trials.All out efforts need to be made so that the ship is delivered and commissioned in the 75th year of our Independence. This would be a fitting tribute to the 'Azadika Amrit Mahotsav', he said.The defence minister also noted that 39 ships and submarines out of 41, which are on order, are being built in Indian shipyards.While the Navy has been at the forefront of indigenisation, it is important for us to leverage on the momentum that we have gained thus far. I urge the senior leadership to maintain their focus on futuristic capability development to ensure that the nation's maritime power grows in tandem with our economic interests, Singh said.In his address, Singh reiterated that the sovereignty of India and prosperity is dependent on the armed forces.Therefore, the need for a strong and credible Indian Navy cannot be over emphasised. I am conscious of the importance of long-term funding for the sustained growth of the Navy and the Navy's consistent performance in optimally utilising the allocated budget, he said.Singh said the Indian Navy, over the years, has maintained a high tempo of operations and established a credible and responsive presence in the Indian Ocean Region through mission-based deployments.These deployments have reaffirmed Indian Navy's position as the preferred security partner in the Indian Ocean Region, he said.The defence minister complimented the Navy for its professionalism and dedication with which they continue to perform the duty of safeguarding India's maritime interests.I am cognisant that India's maritime character and its vital geostrategic location have played a primary role in our growth as a nation and evolution as a civilization, he said.With increasing dependence on the seas for national development and engagement with the world, the Indian Navy, continues to protect India's maritime interests and enables a safe and secure environment in the region, he added.The four-day Navy Commanders' Conference began on Monday.The naval commanders carried out a comprehensive review of the country's maritime security preparedness as well as possible implications of the Ukraine crisis for regional security among other issues.","portalUser":{"id":"rgkwRLMU8bE","name":"PTI","username":"presstrustofindia","photo":"https://ik.imagekit.io/o8plo3y5if/opoyi_WQDSboZhJ.jpg","role":8},"opinions":[],"liveblogStatus":true,"lastReply":null,"replyUser":null,"userMentions":[],"lastCommentMentions":null,"lastReplyMentions":null,"checkIn":null,"keywords":"Russia,Navy,India,Ukraine,Singh,the Indian Navy,New Delhi,Defence,Rajnath Singh,Army","originalPublishedOn":"2022-04-28T10:45:06.542708+00:00"}},{"node":{"id":"gWerxCuPtGRq","slug":"english/united-kingdom-urges-allies-to-ramp-up-production-of-tanks-warplanes-for-ukraine","title":"United Kingdom urges allies to 'ramp up' production of tanks, warplanes for Ukraine","postType":1,"coverMedia":"https://images.opoyi.net/opoyi_jLdDpkemn.jpg","coverCaption":"Valentyna Sherba, 68, stands next to a Russian tank in the backyard of her father's home, both destroyed.

Also read: US Vice President Kamala Harris tests positive for COVID,The development is a breakthrough given Germany's long-standing policy of not exporting arms to war zones, adhering to which Germany, unlike other Western allies, had not provided arms to Ukraine prior to Russia's invasion on February 24 and even prohibited other nations from suppling German-origin military equipment. German Chancellor Olaf Scholz was facing rising backlash at home and abroad for his government's inability to deploy heavy weaponry to Ukraine. This came in the face of continual military reinforcements from Western allies to assist the wrecked country in defending itself against Russian attacks. Also read: How to avoid Elon Musk takeover bids: The story of a science magazine,Scholz had countered by saying that Germany's military reserves were too exhausted to provide any powerful battlefield weaponry such as tanks and howitzers, and that those that German industry claimed it could supply would be difficult to use. Sholz's indecisiveness in this subject had pitted his Social Democrats (SPD) against coalition allies, the Greens, and the Free Democrats (FPD). Additionally, former German Chancellor Angela Merkel's Christian Democratic Union (CDU) was adamant about filing a motion demanding for immediate weapons exports.

And because in India they can develop the 'Make in India' because we want to build and make everything in India, Singh told reporters in response to a question. Earlier, in his opening remarks at the 2+2 ministerial, Singh said that India places the highest priority upon the strategic partnership with USA. Major defence partnership is one of the most important pillars of India-US strategic relations,” he said. As the largest country and the centre to Indian Ocean, and as a democracy, India has critical roles to play in the Indian Ocean region and in the wider Indo-Pacific following the Act East and the Neighbourhood First policy, he said. India played preeminent role in the region, from the Tsunami in 2004 and during the COVID pandemic. We have signed eight different defence-related agreements between our two countries in last few years, including a Space Situational Awareness Agreement for unclassified domain, which is being signed today, he added. Despite the pandemic, India-USA military engagements increased with higher capability in communication, closer information sharing, and enhanced mutual logistic support, he said adding that this is a reflection of their growing depth and scale of the defense partnership. In a decade, our defense suppliers from USA rose from negligible to a cumulative around of over USD 20 billion. We look forward to US companies investing in India and support the Make In India programme, he said. We look forward to further enhancing the depth and the scope of our defense cooperation to give effect to our shared vision of a free, open, inclusive, and a rules-bound Indo-Pacific and the Indian Ocean region, he said. India, he said, is working with the US to double up capabilities across conventional and emerging defense domains.
