Current system can’t be labeled as democracy: Sheikh Rasheed

Minister for Railways Sheikh Rasheed Ahmad said that the current system cannot be labeled as democracy because such ‘disabled’ (so called) democracy can be turned into tragedy any time. Speaking to the journalists, the railways minister termed that in the current system the people get interim bail till nine months. “If people are being awarded bails on official holidays then that system can’t be labeled democracy,” he added.
