Question

Why is pakistan not considered a democratic even after having elections?

Answer 1

Answer:

Pakistan under General Musharraf is not called a democracy because the rulers were not elected by the people.

People might have elected their representatives to the national and provincial assemblies but these elected representatives were not really the rulers. They could not take the final decisions.

The power to take final decisions rested with army officials and with General Musharraf, and none of them were elected by the people.

Answer 2

Pakistan is not considered a democratic even after having elections.

• It is ruled by the military which does not permit free and fair elections.
• It does not allow people to run to office when they do not accept the regime.
• No General public education system is there in Pakistan.
• It doesn't teach about how a democracy works.
