&ldquo;If you think I call the shots in this country then you have no idea who Imran Khan is,&rdquo; the all-powerful Pakistani army chief General Qamar Javed Bajwa told the students when he was asked if the army was running the country.&nbsp;</p>
<p>
And the young audience of Lahore University of Management Sciences were amused with the answer on Sunday. Though there were no question-and-answer sessions, it was an impromptu decision by Bajwa when one student requested the same.&nbsp;</p>
<p>
Bajwa told the students that the Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan is &ldquo;calling the shots&rdquo; while the military is playing a secondary role as he is struggling for his survival in the wake of the impending no-confidence vote against him.&nbsp;</p>
<p>
&ldquo;No, I am not his friend. He is my boss,&rdquo; replied the smiling general of the Pakistani military establishment who selected Imran Khan to be the Prime Minister in 2018 by rigging the elections.</p>
<p>
According to Pakistani watchers, Bajwa&rsquo;s remark has come at the time when the military establishment has decided to dump its pilot project of a hybrid regime headed by Imran Khan.&nbsp;</p>
<p>
&ldquo;Bajwa was making a mockery of Imran Khan. In fact, his message was clear that Imran Khan is responsible for the current situations in Pakistan, not the army,&rdquo; said one Pakistani journalist.</p>
<p>
Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan&rsquo;s fate was sealed when the army declared that in the wake of the opposition sponsored no-confidence vote.&nbsp;</p>
<p>
&ldquo;Pakistan army is neutral,&rdquo; the army also warned Imran Khan and his ministers, &ldquo;not to drag them into his politics as the military has nothing to do with domestic politics.&rdquo;</p>
<p>
But beleaguered &ldquo;puppet&rdquo; Imran Khan shot back at Bajwa by saying that &ldquo;&quot;only animals remain neutral.&quot; Khan ridiculed Bajwa in public when he attacked him publicly.</p>

<p>
Declaring war on Gen. Bajwa, Imran Khan gave a blunt message to his &ldquo;selectors&rdquo; to keep their advice to themselves. Khan warned that he would be more of a danger if he were not in office and said, &ldquo;If I take to the streets, then you won&rsquo;t find any place to hide.&quot;</p>
<p>
&nbsp;Imran Khan is insecure and frustrated as Bajwa has let Imran Khan know that he is no longer propping up Khan.&nbsp;</p>
<p>
According to the Pakistani experts, Khan would fight till the end &ndash; and not just with the opposition, but his &ldquo;selectors&rdquo; as well.&nbsp;</p>
<p>
&ldquo;By calling his supporters to Islamabad on March 27, a day before the no-confidence vote, Khan is ready to fight on the street. His abuses, insults, and threats are part of his strategy to create mayhem,&rdquo; said one journalist.&nbsp;</p>
<p>
Is the Pakistan army repenting of the failure of the project of &ldquo;hybrid&rdquo; regime ?&nbsp;</p>
<p>
Not exactly, the establishment has decided that no such &ldquo;project&rdquo; may take a toll on its &ldquo;credibility&rdquo;. But make no mistake, no matter what, Pakistan will be ruled by the Pakistan army.</p>
