QUETTA: Chief of Army Staff General Qamar Javed Bajwa will be spending the second day of Eid-ul-Azha in Balochistan, the Inter Services Public Relations said on Sunday.
The military’s media wing said the army chief will meet troops and locals in Turbat and Gwadar, in the southern region of the province.
On Saturday, the first day of Eid, the army chief visited troops deployed in Rajgal Valley on the Pak-Afghan border.
“Eid on duty for the security of Pakistan and its people is the best festivity for us,” the COAS said, according to a tweet by ISPR Director General Major General Asif Ghafoor.
“Pakistan is our passion & our life; our lives are for Pakistan. ‘Nothing/no one is above [our]country. Inshallah together we’ll make it the best country,” Bajwa said.

“Balochistan is my prime focus and prosperity of people in Baluchistan at par with other provinces is the main objective,” the COAS said during his visit, according to the ISPR.
