Former president General (r) Pervez Musharraf has asked the chief election commissioner to conduct the next general elections in the supervision of the armed forces. Addressing an Iftar dinner from Catholic Club to Dubai via video link, Musharraf was of the view that fair and transparent general elections would bring a change in the country, adding that he would announce the date of his return to Pakistan prior to the next general elections. Musharraf termed terrorism a curse and stressed that the menace should be shackled. “Sectarianism is destroying the country.” He said he had no knowledge of who was involved in the Karachi unrest. Musharraf said he had resigned from the seat of the president nearly four years ago because there was no need of his remaining in power after the election of new assemblies and parliament.
Next elections should be conducted under armed forces’ supervision, says Musharraf
