Detailed Solution

The above statement is False.
In Pakistan, the military has real authority. The real power does not lie in the hands of the elected representatives. One such incident was when General Musharraf carried out a military takeover in Pakistan in October 1999. He removed the democratically elected administration and installed himself as the President. In Pakistan, a vote was taken in 2002, and he was elected to a 5-year term. The referendum was ultimately revealed to have been founded on fraud and irregularities. No decision could be made without his consent when he changed the Constitution to make himself supreme. Final decisions were made by General Musharraf and the army, neither of whom had been chosen by the electorate.
The correct statement would be real power was in the hands of General Parvez Musharraf in Pakistan in 1999.
