Shortly after the establishment of Pakistan, Sardar Abdul Rabb Nishtar sent a file about Ayub Khan to Quaid-e-Azam and wrote in a note that Ayub Khan was interested in politics instead of rehabilitation and relief of refugees.
🚷 On this the Quaid-e-Azam wrote this order on file:
"I know this army officer (Ayub Khan). He is more interested in politics than military matters. It is transferred to East Pakistan. He will not work in a command position for a year and will not plant a badge during that period. "

* Quaid-e-Azam's anger against Ayub Khan did not subside even later and when he went to Dhaka and was given a military salute, he stopped Ayub Khan from standing with him.

Ayub Khan was very upset at his demise and he decided to contact the then Army Chief against the orders of Quaid-e-Azam and in this regard he sought the help of his friend Brigadier Sher Ali Khan Pataudi. Sher Ali Khan Pataudi went to Rawalpindi from Karachi at the first opportunity and recommended his friend to Commander-in-Chief Sir Frank Misroi but nothing came of it.

🚷 But it is unfortunate that Ayub Khan, with whom Quaid-e-Azam was so disgusted, was made the head of the army by Liaquat Ali Khan, giving priority to the then most senior general, General Iftikhar. It is said that his friend Brigadier Sher Ali Khan Pataudi and other comrades also played an important role in this regard.
🚷 And look at the misfortune, it was Ayub Khan who became the first Martial Law Administrator of Pakistan and ruled Pakistan for eleven years.

* Quaid-e-Azam wanted to run the country in a special democratic way. And they didn't like anyone interfering in that. In this regard, the Quaid-e-Azam, following the advice of another army officer, Akbar Khan, had told him that his job was not to formulate policy, but to obey the orders of the government.
🚷 And later he was arrested for sedition against General Akbar Liaquat Ali Khan and spent almost five years in prison.
🚷 And look at the misfortune, the same General Akbar, who was sentenced to treason by the court, was nominated by Bhutto in 1973 as a member of the National Security Council.

🚷 The founder of Pakistan visited Staff College Quetta in June 1948. During the conversation there, he realized that senior military officers were not aware of the true meaning of their oath. On this occasion, he put aside his written speech and read out his oath to the military officers as a reminder, and made them realize that their job is not to give orders but to obey orders.

🚷 In later periods, the military generals violated this oath to such an extent that Air Marshal Asghar Khan had to write: I suggest that if we are to be ruled by the generals, then these words should be deleted from the oath: I will not take part in the political activities of the party, whatever their nature. ”

When General Gracie went to Lahore on his professional visit, he saw Colonel Ayub and asked Bala, "If you had to report to Dhaka, what are you doing here?" General Gracie ordered Ayub's court-martial and brought him to Karachi.
