    "content": "Section 12(b) of the KDF Act empowers the Chief of the KDF to lawfully administer the KDF as a disciplined force. Section 10(d) of the principle Act grants concurrent powers to the CS to administer the KDF, which is likely to create uncertainty in the command. The command structure of the KDF must be very clear. Section 12(b) empowers the Chief of KDF. He is the person who is lawfully allowed to administer the KDF as a disciplined force, but not the CS who is given the powers under Section 10(d) to administer the KDF. The CS is supposed to deal with the civilian policy obligation of the KDF. The day today command of the KDF lies with the Chief of KDF. That is the lacuna in law which this amendment is trying to clear."
