Musharraf Plan

The Musharraf Plan was a proposed process to transition Pakistan from military rule to civilian democratic governance. Named after General Pervez Musharraf, who was the military ruler at the time, the plan aimed to gradually transfer power to elected leaders while maintaining the military’s influence in security matters. It envisioned a phased approach involving temporary constitutional measures, holding elections, and gradually restoring full civilian control, with the goal of stabilizing the country and strengthening democratic institutions. The plan sought to balance military interests with democratic progress, but its implementation faced criticism and challenges, ultimately shaping Pakistan’s political evolution.
