    18. Read the source given below and answer the questions that follow.
    In Pakistan, General Pervez Musharraf led a military coup in October 1999. He overthrew a
    democratically elected government and declared himself the 'Chief Executive' of the country. Later he
    changed his designation to President and in 2002 held a referendum in the country that granted him a
    five-year extension. Pakistani media, human rights organisations and democracy activists said that the
    referendum was based on malpractices and fraud. In August 2002 he issued a 'Legal Framework Order'
    that amended the Constitution of Pakistan. According to this Order, the President can dismiss the
    national and provincial assemblies. The work of the civilian cabinet is supervised by a NationalSecurity
    Council which is dominated by military officers. After passing this law, elections were held to the
    national and provincial assemblies. So Pakistan has had elections, elected representatives have some
    powers. But the final power rested with military officers and General Musharraf himself. Clearly, there
    are many reasons why Pakistan under General Musharraf should not be called a democracy. People
    may have elected their representatives to the national and provincial assemblies but those elected
    representatives were not really the rulers. They cannot take the final decisions. The power to take final
    decision rested with army officials and with General Musharraf, and none of them were elected by the
    people. This happens in many dictatorships and monarchies. They formally have an elected parliament
    and government but the real power is with those who are not elected. In a few countries, the real power
    was with some external powers and not with locally elected representatives. This cannot be called
    people's rule.
    (i)When did General Parvez Musharraf led coups in Pakistan? 1
    ( ii )When did General Parvez Musharraf held Referendum in Pakistan? 1
    (iii) Who dominated National Security Council in Pakistan? 1
    (iv)Who has the final powers in Pakistan? 1
