Director General of Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) Maj Gen Asif Ghafoor while talking to ARY News questioned which 'institution' the opposition was referring to at today's rally.

"Are they talking about the Election Commission, the courts or the military?" he asked. "Opposition should understand that the Army believes in the implementation of the Constitution and the law. We support a democratically elected government, not any one party.

"The opposition has a complaint about the credibility of the elections and are dragging the Army into it because of this issue — the Army only fulfilled its constitutional and legal responsibility during elections," he said.

"One year has passed since the elections, if they [opposition] still have reservations, then it is their constitutional right to approach the relevant institutions. Taking to the streets and throwing blame around does not solve problems."
