Detailed Solution

The above statement is false.
Democracy has essential traits which make it different from other non-democratic political structures such as dictatorships, monarchies, etc. Some nations portray themselves as democratic to save themselves from worldwide criticism. So it had followed by Pakistan in 1999. During this, Pakistan was under military rule. General Pervez Musharraf established his military practice by overthrowing the popularly elected government. To show Pakistan as a democracy, he brought a 2002 constitutional amendment named the Legal Framework Order. It specifies that elections to the national and provincial assemblies may be held, and these shall have certain powers, but the actual power lies with the president.
The correct statement would be Pakistan under General Musharraf cannot be called a democracy.
