Trend of election results in Pakistan is good augury for the restoration of democracy despite low percentage of voting.The low percantage of polling is due to the people's apprehension about law and order problem and not due to their lack of faith in the democratic way of life for which they have been struggling for long.Now the question is whether a stable government will be possibe !

Pranab Babu, I can answer your question only after two days when everything is crystal clear and all experts have passed their judgements. As far as Pakistan is concern I better play it safe. Meanwhile, please note that the reason of the low percentage of votting is Muslim's non-faith in democracy. They love to beleive that like One God and One Prophet there should also be only One King.
