Second Lieutenant Asad, who was present at briefing point for the security of the venue, was promoted to the rank of Lieutenant in a unique way.
General Bajwa promoted the officer and asked him to bring the rank of Lieutenant. As the officer was not in possession of ranks, so the army chief asked him to give a pen. Then COAS Bajwa himself drew the ranks of Lieutenant on Asad’s uniform.
