Pakistan: Democracy is our politics: Zardari

In an apparent message to some political and religious elements, PPP Co-Chairman and former president Asif Ali Zardari has said Our founding principles ‘democracy is our politics' and ‘all power to the people' are ingrained in the consciousness of the people and will never be erased," he said.

He said that the PPP would not permit anyone to impose any peculiar agenda through brute force and using the facade of religion. "The party is also conscious of threats to democracy in the name of democracy itself and is determined to foil them," Zardari said in a statement issued in relation to the 47th founding day of the party, which falls today (Sunday). "Our founding principles ‘democracy is our politics' and ‘all power to the people' are ingrained in the consciousness of the people and will never be erased," he said. He said this year the Pakistan People's Party was celebrating its founding day by holding conventions of party workers for stock-taking and soul-searching as well as for reiterating its commitment to the ideals for the pursuit of which it was founded by Zulfikar Ali Bhutto. "We reiterate that all power belongs to the people and they alone have the power to bring about political change through the ballot box," he remarked.
