Heading towards third democratic transition

General Elections 2018 are going to be held in Pakistan on July 25 and the day will mark the third successive democratic transition.

Initiation of long-awaited accountability drive

Accountability, which is one of the basic pillars of democracy, seems to be happening in Pakistan. Although this happened nearby the elections, its importance cannot be ignored in any case. The only thing which the relevant stakeholders are required to ensure is that it (accountability) is conducted across the board. Indeed, the justice should be delivered as early as possible. PTI, PML-N, PPP and leaders from other minor parties are facing Supreme Court, NAB, FIA, and other institutions. Pakistanis should feel proud of it.
