The current Chief of Army Staff (COAS) of Pakistan as of 2026 is General Asim Munir, who was commissioned in the Pakistan Army in 1988. This makes option D the correct answer.

Recent legislative amendments in Pakistan have extended the tenure of service chiefs (Army, Navy, Air Force) from the previous 3 years to a fixed 5 years. The retirement age limit of 64 years no longer applies to these chiefs during their tenure. They may also be reappointed or have their tenure extended for up to 5 years based on government decisions. This change was enacted through amendments to the Pakistan Army, Navy, and Air Force Acts in 2024, making the tenure 5 years fixed rather than 3 years extendable.

The Inspector General (IG) of Punjab Police is responsible for law enforcement in Punjab, which is the largest province of Pakistan by population. Therefore, option D is correct.
