Chief of General Staff ( Pakistan ) Chief of General Staff , shortly abbreviated as CGS , is the most coveted position within the Pakistan Army . Although four - star Chief of Army Staff ( COAS ) is the nominal head of the land forces , CGS is the operational and intelligence lead of the institution . It is headed by a three - star lieutenant general . Traditionally , the selection for COAS or Chairman Joint Chiefs of Staff Committee ( CJCSC ) has a preference for Chief of General Staff posting . The last 13 four - star army generals had eight officers who did a tenure as CGS . Out of five who didn ' t , Pervez Musharraf and Ashfaq Parvez Kayani stayed as DGMO and Ehsan ul Haq stayed as DGMI , all two - star postings under the CGS . The current Chief of General Staff is Lt Gen Rashad Mahmood since January 2013 . Organisation . The CGS heads the General Staff Branch of Army General Headquarters . He is also assisted by a Vice Chief of General Staff ( VCGS ) and Deputy Chief of General Staff ) , both two - star major generals . The critical directorates of Military Operations and Military Intelligence ( headed by DGMO and DGMI respectively ) also come under his purview . Coup - maker . Historically , the CGS post , in addition to Commander X Corps , Rawalpindi , had political significance when the army chief wanted to overthrow political leadership . The 1999 Pakistani coup d ' état , which brought General Pervez Musharraf to power had active involvement of Lt Gen Muhammad Aziz Khan , then CGS and Lt Gen Mahmud Ahmed , commander X Corps Rawalpindi . Therefore , the army chief essentially positions most trusted aides for these two postings before making a routine reshuffle . General Ziauddin Butt , who was nominated by Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif after retiring Pervez Musharraf , passed his first orders to appoint Lt Gen Muhammad Akram as CGS and Lt Gen Salim Haider as Commander Rawalpindi Corps . But before this order could be conveyed to the rest of the army , Aziz and Mahmud took steps to reverse the order by overthrowing the government and thus essentially starting the 1999 coup .

Tolquhon Castle Tolquhon Castle ( pronounced : " toh - hon " , and sometimes spelt ' Tolquhoun ' ) is located in Aberdeenshire , north - east Scotland . It lies about north - west of Pitmedden , and south of Tarves . The castle was built by William Forbes , 7th Laird of Tolquhon , between 1584 and 1589 as an extension to the earlier tower house known as Preston ' s Tower . Although ruined , the castle has been described as " the most characteristic châteaux of the Scots Renaissance " . It is in the care of Historic Scotland and is open to the public . History . Preston ' s Tower was constructed in the early 15th century , either by Sir Henry Preston or by his son - in - law Sir John Forbes , who inherited part of the Preston lands in 1420 , following Sir Henry ' s death . His descendant William Forbes , 7th Laird of Tolquhon ( died 1596 ) , began work on a new castle in 1584 , retaining the Preston Tower but adding new , more comfortable accommodation . He also improved the gardens and parkland around the house . King James VI was entertained at Tolquhon in 1589 . The new buildings were arranged around a courtyard , and included an elaborate gatehouse , and a first - floor gallery . An inscription on the gatehouse records that " AL THIS WARKE EXCEP THE AULD TOWR WAS BEGUN BE WILLIAM FORBES 15 APRIL 1584 AND ENDIT BE HIM 20 OCTOBER 1589 " . The home of a " Renaissance man " , Tolquhon was designed for show rather than defence , and was the work of the mason - architect Thomas Leper or Leiper . Leper ' s distinctive triple shot - holes flank the main entrance , and are also found at nearby Arnage Castle and Dean Castle in Ayrshire . Also unusual is the stone tilework in the main hall . After William Forbes ' death his descendants continued to occupy Tolquhon until 1718 , when they were forced to move out due to debts incurred by the failure of the Darien scheme . The castle subsequently decayed and is now a ruin . It is in the guardianship of Historic Scotland and is open to the public . Tolquhon is also a category A listed building and a scheduled monument . Description . The main entrance is on the north range of the castle , with the Preston Tower forming the north - east corner . The gallery occupies the first floor of the west range , while the main hall is in the south range , accessed via a stair from the courtyard . A prison was located within the south - east tower . To the north of the main quadrangle is the walled outer courtyard , with the remains of a doocot .
