DEFENSE
Pakistan's 27th Constitutional Amendment has established the Chief of Defense Forces (CDF) position, replacing the Joint Chiefs of Staff Committee to enhance military command and control. This reform aims to improve operational efficiency and unity within the armed forces, aligning military strategies with contemporary security challenges. The CDF will advise the government on defense matters, promoting collaborative planning and timely decision-making to strengthen Pakistan's defense capabilities.
