D for Democracy‪?‬

Byline: Dr Hasan Askari Rizvi Pakistan's democracy and elected civilian political arrangements are on the edge. These can become dysfunctional and fall apart but these can also be rescued. If the latest experiment with democracy falters, the primary discredit will be that of the political and societal leaders who would be missing another opportunity to sustain participatory political system. In case, the elected institutions and processes overcome the current drift towards chaos and become efficacious, the political leadership will get the credit for such a miraculous return from the brink.
