National Security is No Longer A Pursuit of Military Alone

Chairman Joint Chiefs of Staff Committee (CJCSC), General Khalid Shameem Wynne has said that "National Security is no longer a pursuit of the Military alone nor is its management the exclusive domain of a selected few. The effective pursuit of national security requires developing a strategic framework which encompasses all elements of National power, Tangible as well as intangible ".
