Democracy in Pakistan

Democracy in Pakistan refers to the system of government where elected representatives make decisions on behalf of the people. Established after gaining independence in 1947, Pakistan has experienced periods of both civilian rule and military coups. The Constitution, adopted in 1973, lays the foundation for democratic governance. Elections are held every five years, and political parties play a significant role in the process. Challenges include political instability, corruption, and influence from the military, yet citizens actively participate in shaping their governance through voting and civic engagement, striving for a more accountable and inclusive political system.
