Recent Additions

Hey @Fayaz Rahman: There are multiple issues with your recent additions

First, "The first commander of this corps was Lieutenant-General Khwaja Wasiuddin who was a Bengali.". This is still unsourced and more importantly why does it matter if he was Bengali, Punjabi or Sindhi? How is that relevant here.

Second, the corps is called as the Multan based corps which is not equatable to it's nickname. A lot of corps are referred to the base of their HQ but these are not considered their nicknames. I will elaborate further on this. For example, take the Indian Army II Corps (India), which is nicknamed "Kharga Corps". It is HQ in Ambala and sometimes even referred to as the Ambala based corps but that is not its nickname. Similarly, I Corps (United States) from the US Army is nicknamed the "Eye Corps". I looked at various Pakistan Army books and references and failed to find even a single official reference to this nickname. Adamgerber80 (talk) 15:57, 11 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
