Abstract
In the case of Pakistan, the judiciary failed to check an extra constitutional regime change. This practice has questioned the judicial independence as well as weakened the confidence of the institution. Technical steps, legislative corrections and reforms cannot revise the role of judiciary. It needs credible commitment by the government to respect the rule of law, a transparent system of judicial appointments and to ensure that judicial decisions at all levels may be practiced. The present research focuses on (i) the constitutional and political experiences of Pakistan’s struggle for democracy (ii) to link the stability of the political system with the judiciary will further create certain debatable issues? The research will conclude that a more comprehensive and coherent policy is needed to tackle this technical as well as political issue. For the survival of democracy and stability of the political system it is important that all the institutions must remain in their described limitations. This strategy will avoid any further bumpy ride of Pakistan’s political journey. Key Words: Judicial activism, Democratic evolvement, Rule of law, Role of military, legitimate rule, Democracy
