Gilani rules out threat to democratic system
ISLAMABAD, Dec 2 (APP): Prime Minister Syed Yusuf Raza Gilani on Friday said the parliamentary system had gained strength in the last four years and dismissed the impression that it was facing any threat of destabilization, even through a ‘democratic move’.“To destabilize the government is next to impossible,” the Prime Minister told mediapersons when asked about the possibility of general elections before the upcoming Senate elections in March.
The Prime Minister said it was the testimony of a strong democratic system that the government was in place despite several undemocratic attempts against it.
 He said the conspirators were now giving a hopeless try to destabilize the government by pushing for general polls before the Senate elections.
 “They can do no harm to us. I want to give this message loud and clear,” he said.Gilani said the democratic system was not established in a single day and was the result of numerous sacrifices by great leaders including Mohtarma Benazir Bhutto and Zulfikar Ali Bhutto Shaheed.
 “This system has come to stay and it will not be destabilized through any democratic or undemocratic move,” he categorically said and added that those who called the Parliament a rubber stamp, should clear their mind.
He said the entire nation, civil society and media were supporting democracy to prevail in the country.
