She said that People's Party believes in democracy and will take an active part in the forthcoming local bodies elections and field its candidates on all union council seats. She said that general elections would be held after completion of the constitutional tenure of the present government therefore, political parties, which boycotted general elections of 2008, should wait for another three years and refrain from creating hurdles in the democratic process. Such political parties should join political and democratic system by contesting local bodies' elections, she concluded.
