Pakistan’s powerful army plans to shift its General Headquarters (GHQ) from Rawalpindi to Islamabad and is ready to kick off construction on the ambitious project, according to a media report on Thursday.
The decision was disclosed by an official of the Capital Development Authority during a meeting of the Public Accounts Committee subcommittee, Dawn reported. The plan to shift the GHQ was shelved around October 2008 to 2009, at the instructions of then army chief Gen Ashfaq Pervez Kayani, due to financial constraints, the paper said.
