QUETTA: Chief of the Naval Staff Admiral Muhammad Amjad Khan Niazi on Wednesday paid rich tribute to the sacrifices rendered by the armed forces in defence of the country and emphasised the need for keeping them abreast of emerging trends and making endeavours to deal with the current complex and dynamic security environment.

He was talking to the participants of the staff course during his visit to the Command and Staff College, Quetta.

Admiral Niazi said that ‘jointness’ was central to the modern concept of military operations as no force could achieve success in today’s warfare single-handedly.

He pointed out that Pakistan Navy was always ready to tackle the maritime security challenges facing the country by active support of the sister services.

Later, the PN chief interacted with faculty and students, including foreign officers studying at the premier institution.

On arrival at the institution, the admiral was received by the commandant of Staff College.
