Pakistan's Military Proposes Constitutional Changes Including Presidential System
Pakistan's military, led by Field Marshal Asim Munir, is reportedly developing a 10-year national plan proposing significant constitutional reforms. These include shifting to a presidential system, creating new provinces and administrative units, and altering financial resource distribution between federal and provincial governments. The plan may formalize the military's role as an equal stakeholder in state affairs amid ongoing economic challenges and political polarization. The military views entrenched political families as contributing to governance issues and seeks expanded influence within a new framework.
