Abstract
Civil-military relations in Pakistan have been remained,
predominantly, smooth and straight in the history of Pakistan
with it is, explicitly, more tilt towards military establishment.
Period of Z.A Bhutto has been marked as a unique period in the
history of civil-military relations in Pakistan due to efforts for
radical changes in these relations as a result of constitutional
reforms and politico-administrative measures. Zulfiqar Ali
Bhutto adopted the policy of curtailment of power of military
through constitutional-cum-administrative measures on the one
hand, and the strategy to restore the lost morale of the army by
increasing its budget and through enhancement of salaries of
the military personnel on the other hand. This paper locates the
independence, autonomy and strength of the democratic
parliament and democratic regime of Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto as well
as the power and area of influence of the army in the political
affairs of Pakistan.
