Major General Iskander Ali Mirza (1899-1969) was a descendant of Gaddar-e-Abrar Mir Jafar and the first President of the Republic of Pakistan
(23 March 1956 to 27 October 1958).
Yes! Iskander Mirza's great-grandfather was Mir Jafar!!
The rise of Iskander Mirza's career after Waziristan Operation:
He was attached to the 2nd Battalion, Cameronians 16 July 1920, and served in the Khodad Khel Operations 1921 and at Waziristan 1924.
For his loyal service he was twice awarded:
OBE ; Grand cross's star of the Order of the British Empire
CIE; Companions of the Order of the Indian Empire
Later on his contributions for the State of Pakistan:
In 1958, Mirza decided that the 1956 Constitution was contributing to political instability; on 7 October, he declared martial law with the view to introducing a new constitution "more suited to the genius of the Pakistani people" in November, as he believed democracy was unsuited to Pakistan "with its 15% literacy rate" (although the same problem of low literacy also existed in India which had opted for democracy).
Ayub Khan declared himself President on 27 October after a bloodless coup d'tat, and Mirza was exiled to London.
FROM ISKANDER MIRZA TO PERVAIZ MUSHARRAF;

And who has served for USA, Britain etc?
IS GEN. KIYANI loyal to PAK AWAM ?
or like his predecessor (Iskander Mirza, Ayub, Zia, Musharraf) loyal to USA, Britain...
