Lt Gen Munir Afsar named NADRA's chairman

There is no law under which a serving general can be appointed at such a key position.

But then was there ever a law in Pakistan? Pakistan is country owned by the army. The army has the country.

This is a 100% attempt to sabotage elections. Voter lists will be tampered. Voters will be thrown out of their constituencies. ID cards will be cancelled or withheld and overseas Pakistanis who raise their voice against army atrocities, their NICOP cards will be cancelled.

Adil Raja broke the story that Pakistanis who protested outside Pakistan embassy a few months ago, their headshots were taken and military secretary at embassy sent the headshots to army command to cancel NICOPs of those protesters. Cancelling NICOP means stripping you of citizenship.

This appointment must be resisted and voice should be raised against it.

Tariq Malik vs a duffer general! We keep falling. Will we ever land at the bottom of this pit and then raise ourselves? Or be damned forever?

"The selection committee had shortlisted three best candidates for the post. After a detailed discussion, the cabinet appointed Lieutenant General Munir Afsar to the post," the communique stated.
No info on this. The discussion matrix.
 
.
His postings and courses seem to indicate technical background like Signals.
what does that have to do with NADRA? its a civilian authority with requirements to serve civilians - not an army function. also, how many pensions should an army general get? why cant they be happy with one salary? is it necessary to take over someone else's job as well?
which other country's social securtiy agencies have a retired general as its head?

Sahi ha. Baki civilians to waisa he چ hain.
 
.
They need a Fauji at Nadra.

Political engineering and management season coming up shortly.

i think frustration like yours are the one of the reasons why nothing is shared with the public. NADRA maybe under civil govt, but then other departments like NAB etc also have serving military and intelligence personnel serving in it. NADRA wouldn’t be the first. As for other countries debate, they don’t fall in same demographics or escalations that Pakistan witnesses, to each his own.
 
. .
Only remaining functioning department successfully taken over by duffers and will be in gutter soon. Anyway at-least now we will be issued computerized certificate of treason.

  • He was promoted to the rank of Lieutenant General in October 2022.
ISLAMABAD: The federal cabinet Monday approved the appointment of Lieutenant General Munir Afsar as the chairman of the National Database and Registration Authority (Nadra).

The federal cabinet approved his appointment after it received a summary containing three names from the Ministry of Interior, a statement from the Prime Minister's Office said.

"The selection committee had shortlisted three best candidates for the post. After a detailed discussion, the cabinet appointed Lieutenant General Munir Afsar to the post," the communique stated.

Later, a notification was also issued, which mentioned that his appointment would come into effect immediately.
The three-star general, who was promoted to the rank of Lieutenant General in October 2022, has extensive experience in IT-related technical development and management in the Pakistan Army and Pakistan's Mission in the United Nations.

Lt Gen Afsar, who has received Hilal-e-Imtiaz (Military), has done his MPhil in Public Policy and National Security Management. He compiled a research paper on public policy response in the Geographic Information Systems (GIS) department during the 2010 floods.

The newly-appointed Nadra chairman did his MS in GIS and remote sensing. He was also awarded a presidential award for his paper on rapid geospatial data generation through photometry.

He did his MS in National Resource Strategy (C&IT Industry and Supply Chain Management) from NDU Washington, DC, where he was named a distinguished graduate.

He is currently a PhD candidate in Remote Sensing at NUST Islamabad. His research paper is related to the detection of plant diseases through remote sensing and artificial intelligence.

Lt Gen Afsar has several research publications to his credit related to various aspects of IT and GIS.
His IT-related work experience includes serving at the UN as a Military Geographic Information Systems (GIS) Officer. His extensive services include the development of a GIS application for flood recovery during the 2010 floods.

As a Major General, he was also the Director General of the DG Command, Control, Communication, Computers, and Intelligence (C41) Directorate, which is responsible for the overall management of IT.
After being promoted to the rank of Lieutenant General, he has served as Inspector General of Communication and IT as well as Commander of Pakistan Army Cyber Command.

Another Victory, another medal for the Generals chest.

I heard he is nominated for the Nishan-e-Haider for completing "Operation Trident," which is described as "The most difficult task in the history in which after long and bloody battle he became victorious which was beyond his Call of Duty and took over a bloody civilian institution and will now serve as a outpost for keeping the slaves of Pakistan under strict check and it will eventually be beneficial for maintaining the fascism currently imposed by army and will eventually culminate in Khakistocracy."
