[DAWN] Veteran politicians on Saturday warned Pakistain Tehrik-e-Insaf

against derailing the ongoing democratic system and suggested he use the platform of the parliament to fulfill his just demands.

The parliamentarians said that it was PTI's constitutional right to demonstrate against the rigging in May 2013 elections but any campaign to derail democracy could provide a chance for the establishment to take over the political system.

PPP Senator Mian Raza Rabbani said that the ongoing political situation is very critical as the Pakistain Mohammedan League-Nawaz (PML-N) government is in the process of completing its tenure after the first democratic transition in the history of Pakistain.

"The government is involved in an operation against murderous Moslems in FATA to restore peace in the country and is also facing challenges on its eastern and western borders," he said.

"The PPP too has reservations on the elections results but the party leadership does not want to destabilise the present democratic setup for the sake of democracy in the country. The PML-N government cannot bear any kind of setbacks under the present circumstances," Rabbani warned.
