"Army didn't allow other institutions to build their capacity further, that's why they come as the only option".
Pseudo intellectuals normally quote one or two idiots, who gave their personal opinions to cover up the complete gorakh dhandha of Bureaucracy since 1947?

Let us put the things in right perspective:
Who usurped powers from political leaders for the first time in Pak history and sent 2 PMs home (Khwaja Nazim ud Din & M Ali Bogra)?

He was Ghulam Muhammad, a Bureaucrat (1951-1955), suggested & appointed by electables as Governor General, considering him to be harmless.
Who was the 2nd person to send 4 PMs home (Ch M Ali, Hussain Shaheed Suharwardy, II Chundrigar & Firoze Khan Noon)?

He was Sikander Mirza (1955-1958) again a Bureaucrat. Due to this bastard, Nehru had to say, "mai itni dhoti nahi badalta jitnay Pakistan Prime ministers badalta hai".

British Colonial Army developed this system of Bureaucracy and their nexus with the jaageerdars or the electables to ease out their job in 1793. British gave them absolute powers to manage and loot the colony for British crown and not to serve the people.

He was Lt Gen Charles Cornwallis, the then Governor General of India (1786-1793), who introduced the system of managing the colony and laid the foundations of current Bureaucracy, Justice and Revenue System.

His famous "Cornwallis Code" and "permanent settlement act" are still taught in the civil services academy.

Pakistan made no changes in that system of Governance since 1861 (organisational) & 1934 (functionality) till todate, then how come the ever powerful bureaucracy complains on their less powers or capacity?

It may be because after the invitation by Sikander Mirza to impose Martial Law in 1958; Gen Ayub Khan not only became the ruler but also kicked the Bureaucracy permanently out from the "TOP SLOT ONLY", BUT their powers remained limitless as they were.

Still, it is the Bureaucracy that's not letting Imran Khan work as per their wishes; petrol crisis, aata crisis etc are not Army's baby. They're the responsibility of Bureaucracy....

Lastly, the Police used to be under ACs, DCs, commissioners and Secretaries since ages, how come army stopped them from development?

Police has recently been freed from the influence of the Teh/District administration. Any branch of Bureaucracy never remained under Army, except during Colonial rule, when Army Generals used to be the Governor Generals.

Anybody still having doubts on the subject is requested to please check the inventory of a DC house, it's still the same as mentioned by Qudratullah Shahab..... no changes.
Only reason: Nexus of Bureaucracy and Electables will never want to limit their powers.

Parliamentary form of Govt gives power to the Electables and keep the Bureaucracy enjoying the pre-colonial privileges. And together, they maintain the same control over their constituencies.

Army kept building its capacity, adapted changes and evolved into the most efficient, reliable and robust organisation in Pakistan.

Frequent calls to Army by the civil administration in "aid of civil power" also kept the civil side complacent and self satisfied as the provisions of constitution helped them to hide their incompetence.

Reportedly, there are 22380 civil govt employees having dual nationalities. How did a Govt employee with limited pay was able to get foreign nationality? Of course through corruption.

Imagine, where their interest/ loyalty would be? Of course, these scums will prefer the country of their permanent settlement over Pakistan.

These dual nationals & corrupt Govt employees must be given option, either to leave Pakistan or renounce other nationality.

If there is need to dismiss few hundreds, even thousands of disgruntled civil servants, do it, as there is no dearth of qualified people. Deficiency even in thousands can be filled from retired & serving army officers.

Remember, Army is the "father service" of current bureaucracy and system of governance (introduced by Lt Gen Charles Cornwallis). That's why we see many districts in the name of British army officers.

In the beginning, all bureaucrats trained were from the same Military Academy in Addiscombe, England (1809-1861), which was later merged with Royal Military Academy Sandhurst and other institutions. Indian Civil Services Academy was made in 1932.
