The PM Gilani, Tuesday, said that there is no chance for midterm polls or a military coup, because our Army is pro-democracy.
This short speech came as a result of growing tensions between different political parties. There are a number of anti-democratic forces in Pakistan that are always hinting towards a military coup. These are basically power thirsty people, who want to get back into the mainstream politics. A number of conspiracy theorists are also working alongside these forces.
The PM has clearly pointed out the intentions of the government and has lauded the army being pro-democracy. It is not suitable for political parties to lobby against the government just to get back into power. Democracy has a self regulating mechanism and with the passage of time, the loopholes that exist today would be fixed.
