Detailed Solution

The above statement is true.
As a military dictatorship that staged a coup in 1999 to topple a democratically elected government, Pakistan under General Musharraf could not be considered a democracy. General Musharraf vested the authority to make decisions when he proclaimed himself as chief executive and then the president in 2001. He held legislative elections or a referendum in 2002, but they were not democratic because opposition parties were prohibited, and the referendum, according to reports, was rigged to support his reign. All significant decisions in Pakistan during the military's reign were made by the generals and military rulers rather than the National Assembly. All of these are the exact opposite of the features of a democracy. Thus, Pakistan cannot be called a democracy under General Musharraf despite holding a referendum.
