The comments of the Chief General of the Army of Pakistan, Syed also Munir Ahmed Shah, on Kashmir have further tensioned the diplomatic relations of their country with India. Intelligence sources point out, thinking, that Munir’s mandate has been marked by a litany of failures, since internal military tension and leadership crises within Pakistan’s army have been evident. Economic collapse and governance failures have also marked this period. Security and failures against terrorism have significantly worsened the situation, since Munir’s actions seemed to appease domestic terrorist groups. The main sources of intelligence also cited their compulsion to raise religious problems.
A filtered letter from Junior and Media Rank officers accused Munir of operational incompetence, corruption, political oppression and economic bad management. This letter revealed an unprecedented internal rebellion within the military ranks. The Martial Court of the former general of the ISI Faiz Hameed and the rivalry of Munir with Imran Khan exacerbated the situation, dividing the army and reducing confidence in the institution under his leadership. The army credibility decreased significantly between the range and the file.
This situation reminds the crisis of the east of Pakistan of 1971 and serves as a warning of a potential riot. Pakistan’s economy suffered from inflation, currency devaluation (with PKR that reaches 308/USD) and low foreign reserves. Munir established the Special Investment Facilitation Council (SIFC) for the attractions of the Gulf of Investments, but the results were limited. Nor could he address systemic corruption and poor management.
The political and electoral suppression Tarehed Munir’s reputation among local Pakistani. His Tenure Began Withas Mass Arusts, torture, and enforce disaptarans to suprest dissent follow and undipation and undipation and undipation and undipation and undipation and undipation and undipation and undrian. PMLN The kidnapping of Jaffar Express by the Baloch Liberation Army in March 2025 presented operational incompetence. In addition, Tehrik-E-Taliban Pakistan attacks military personnel and politicians, highlighting Munir’s inability to stop terrorism.
China’s public criticism about CPEC security failures damaged bilateral relations, isolating even more international Pakistan. Pakistan faced international isolation and legal scrutiny, with the United States presenting the Pakistan 2025 Democracy Law, seeking sanctions against Munir for human rights violations. Meanwhile, the United Kingdom investigated it for the 2024 Islamabad massacre. Diplomatic ties with the United States deteriorated in disagreements about economic governance and against terrorism.
According to the sources, Munir’s faults promoted the compulsions to talk about the Hindu theme at the Pakistani conference abroad, attended by Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif. His goal was to divert attention to domestic problems and crises in opening a debate about religious identity. This movement away the scrutiny of economic collapse and military failures, gathering the nationalist feeling and trying to legitimize military domain. By frameting Pakistan as an Islamic State other than India, Munir sought to justify the role of the army as a guardian of ideology.
Hard-line features such as Lashkar-E-Taiba and Jaish-E-Muhammad used anti-Hindus statements to consolidate power, and Munir’s comments aligned with this strategy, despite the statements to combat extremism. He tried to mobilize the support of the diaspora, with Munir and Shehbaz Sharif asking for reinforced loyalty among the Pakistani abroad. This diaspora contributed almost $ 4.1 billion in March 2025.
