Abstract
The role of civil society cannot be ignored in the development of
a country in the modern era. Civil society in democratic arena compels
the undemocratic elements to follow democratic culture and tradition in
a given society. The civil society keeps a vigilant watch on the
activities of legislature, executive and judiciary. It criticizes any organ
of the government which misuses its power or violates the constitution
or meddles with the activities of other organ of government.
In Pakistan the role of civil society is also significant in the
promotion of democracy in Pakistan. This paper, apart from the
conceptual clarification of civil society and democracy, will throw a
light that how civil society played its role in the promotion of
democratic culture and tradition in Pakistan.
