The ever so famous debate of Pakistan where people say that our country’s army enjoys the biggest budget! There is no lie in it. Every year a VERY LARGE amount of the country’s budget is given to the army. And it is backed by a school of thought that the army needs more budget to protect the country.
The other school of thought which says that if the army enjoys a larger amount of budget then it’s not the soldiers on the borders who get it, all of it is spent on the weapons and research. The soldiers live endless years on the borders, away from their families and loved ones, just to protect the country from evil! These are not the ones who get to eat the best or sleep on the most comfortable beds like any normal citizen.
The army works for its people and goes to the field knowing that their life is written off in the name of the country.
Another dedicated soldier lost his eyes, battling anti-state elements in DG Khan!
Col. Ayub Haider is the finest example of Pakistan Army. His gratitude is unshakable!
Meet Col Ayub Haider, who got seriously injured in an encounter with terrorists, few days back. Due to a grenade explosion, he lost his both eyes, got multiple fractures and multiple punctured organs. See his spirit and composure. THAT'S PAKISTAN ARMY FOR U….#Salute#LeadingFromFront#OurSoldiersOurPride#PakArmyZindabad

Col. Ayub ran to the already injured soldiers during the operation but as he arrived there the perpetrators used another explosive which caused Col. Ayub a lot of injuries, majorly hurting his eyes.
3. Col Ayub rushed to apprehend injured msct but msct blasted the hand grenade. Resultantly, Col Ayub got injuries at face and leg. Later, both injured rangers indls were evacuated to RHC Vohva, Tehsil Taunsa and later on, were shifted to CMH Multan by heli.

Though he is out of danger however his eyes issue is really sensitive.

“Such valor and bravery are reasons why Pakistan is invincible with certainly Allah’s will. Heartfelt prayers for Col. Ayub. May Allah sustain his health as he recovers from his wounds and is no longer bound to bed.”
