ISLAMABAD: Why is elected government **t allowed to smoothly execute its manifesto in the stipulated time of five years?

Why are conspiracies being hatched by anti-democracy elements to send the government packing prematurely? Why political mess is created exposing Pakistan to uncertainty leading to huge eco**mic damage? Why don’t all the institutions serve the nation while being glued to their constitutional limits? And for how long will Pakistan be made a laboratory of unwanted interventions and adventures?

These are the questions which haunt every pro-democracy Pakistani, who wants to see democracy flourishing and taking roots and is perplexed due to fast happening political developments and questionable country-wide campaign of displaying the posters seeking army intervention to oust the elected regime.

Thanks to democracy that for the first time in the history of Pakistan, 180 million people witnessed the smooth transition of power from one government to a**ther after the 2013 general elections. There is ** justifiable cause to struggle for its derailment.

During earlier 126-day sit-in Islamabad that **t only triggered political unrest, but also caused a mammoth loss of about Rs547 billion to the exchequer and shattered investors’ confidence. If the episode is repeated with the blessings of **n-democratic forces, the eco**mic gains this government has achieved will also be wiped out, meaning that Pakistan’s eco**mic muscle will weaken. So much so the pace of completing the CPEC related projects will automatically slow down and the government’s target to inject 10,400 MW of electricity will **t be achieved. This means the political instability will cater to the vested interests of those foreign powers, which are out to make CPEC project a failure.

** doubt, the defence muscle weakens when eco**mic health of Pakistan wanes. This is why the current government that has ambitious eco**mic targets be allowed to continue to work. The elected government has to be allowed to complete its full term without any political upheaval and turbulence. Even if it does **t play well, ** anti-democratic moves need to be initiated to destabilise it because in any case it will be washed away in the next general elections by the very people who had earlier elected it. if this process is allowed to continue, honest politicians will start emerging on the political horizon.

And those who are dying for martial law should tell the nation what military regimes have delivered. However, elected Prime Minister Z A Bhutto gave Pakistan the nuclear deterrence and brought all Islamic countries on one platform; her daughter Benazir Bhutto gave the country missile tech**logy and Nawaz Sharif exploded the nuclear bomb in the teeth of huge pressure from US, but after 9/11 military regime surrendered when he received a call from the then US secretary of State telling him “Either you are with us or against us.” This means that a weak democratic government is more powerful than the mighty dictator, when it comes to tackling the foreign pressure. So perpetuity of the democratic process is a key to a strong Pakistan.
