Obaidullah Khan Khattak is a lieutenant general in the Pakistan Army who was promoted to that rank on 20 December 2013 when he was assigned to Frontier Corps, Balochistan as inspector general of the Pakistan's paramilitary Frontier Corps force.

He dealt with the hostile elements and militancy in the province via strategic implications which could detach the province from Pakistan. There is no official confirmation of the dismissal of the army officers or any denial in this regard by the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR).
