Army chief's article
It is interesting to read the article on comprehensive plan for food security by a man who is definitely busy with many other preoccupations. In the recent past we have seen him participating in some agri-related programmes where with the assistance of army units farmers have done commendable jobs. This shows his interest in this sector. Gen. Moin U Ahmed's article dealt in detail with the problems and prospects of food security in the country.
In the past, these aspects were ignored deliberately. We hope Gen Ahmed's article will awake our policy makers and functionaries in the field to work in right earnest. We can not remain dependent for long on imports/grants of others for our most vital needs.
We thank General Moin for his timely article.
