Pakistan Army Chief Qamar Javed Bajwa Passes Away at 65
General Qamar Javed Bajwa, former army chief of Pakistan, died at 65 after a fall, following a controversial tenure. His efforts to reduce hostility with India shaped military and political landscapes, yet faced significant challenges.

General Qamar Javed Bajwa, aged 65, passed away after a fall earlier in the year that led to a brain concussion. He served as Pakistan's army chief from November 2016 to November 2022, advocating for reduced hostility with India, recognizing stable relations as essential for regional progress.
Despite his push for peace, including a ceasefire along the Line of Control from February 2021 to April 2025, his tenure faced criticism and challenges, including internal conflicts and political maneuvering. His recognition of the army's historical political interference marked a significant self-reflection that his successor has yet to embrace fully. This transition highlights ongoing tensions within Pakistan's military and political spheres.
