The chairman Senate emphasizes that the “bedrock of democracy lies in values such as public participation in decision-making, human rights, freedom of expression, and the practice of conducting periodic, free, and fair elections through universal suffrage.


Islamabad: Senate Chairman Muhammad Sadiq Sanjrani on Friday emphasized that Pakistan, with its foundation firmly rooted in democratic principles and a parliamentary form of government, “remains resolute in its commitment to nurturing and strengthening democracy in alignment with Islamic principles and the vision of the Founder of the Nation”.
Sadiq Sanjrani, in his message on the World Democracy Day observed on September 15, emphasized that the “bedrock of democracy lies in values such as public participation in decision-making, human rights, freedom of expression, and the practice of conducting periodic, free, and fair elections through universal suffrage.
“Pakistan remains steadfast in its commitment that genuine democracy represents the sole path toward inclusive decision-making and policy formulation, especially for marginalized and vulnerable sectors of society,” he added. Sanjrani stated that the essence of any democratic nation “lies in genuine representation of its people, fairness, equality, social justice, and adherence to the rule of law. Pakistan endeavors to uphold these values through its Constitution, which enshrines and guarantees them.”
