Support The Interview with Karan Thapar - https://fij.mojo.page/support-the-interview-with-karan-thapar One of the foremost scholars of the Pakistan army and the brother of former Pakistan Army Chief Gen. Asif Nawaz Janjua, Shuja Nawaz, analyses the challenge Imran Khan has posed to Army Chief Gen. Bajwa, the ISI and the army as an institution. He reflects on the army’s response and whether that has created differences within this critical institution. He also comments on how the army will handle the situation if there is violence when Imran Khan’s long march reaches Islamabad. In that context, what are the stark choices facing the Pakistan army? And, finally, is there a danger of another army takeover, whether under the present army chief or the new one who is yet to be appointed but will take over at the end of this month.
