PPP chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari on Thursday stressed that that democracy is not defined by merely holding elections.
Speaking to the media in Sukkur, Bilawal noted that the protection of fundamental rights is the real essence of democracy and a compromise on the matter is not possible.
"While it is a positive development that the country was going to witness its second election, we must continue this trend and bring stability to it," he said.
The PPP chief further said, "Holding elections is not the only element of democracy. My party believes the real essence of democracy is the protection of fundamental rights and a compromise on this matter is not possible."
He further observed that the country still has many weaknesses that need to be removed.
Furthermore, Bilawal accused that election-hopefuls are being threatened.
