'But due to misdeeds of few adventurists, they would not allow anyone to ridicule Pak Army, its unprecedented sacrifices for the motherland and demoralise it', he added.
He said time had come that the nation should stand up against the rulers to stop them, who were bent upon the destruction of institutions in the name of survival of democracy, he pointed. Concluding, he said that they believed that the future of democracy could not be guaranteed by weakening the institutions, being backbone for any democratic society.
