Pervez Musharraf was the thirteenth Chief of the Army staff (COAS) and tenth president
of Pakistan. In October 1999, he took over as a Chief Executive of Pakistan by
dismissing then Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif. Military takeover was savored by the
people of Pakistan due to bad governance of democratic Governments. Unlike the
former dictator Gen Zia ul Haq, Gen. Pervez Musharraf gave the impression of being
secular and liberal. He was an ardent admirer of Mustafa Kamal Ataturk and wanted to
establish Turkish Model of democracy in Pakistan. To delink Islam from extremism and
fundamentalism, he introduced the strategy of “enlightened moderation” which has
been discussed in this paper. Many Pakistanis welcomed his policy of “enlightened
moderation” and even OIC acknowledged his approach. He worked sincerely to uplift
the status of women in the society. He also led the army in the war against terrorism
and launched operation against militants who were challenging the writ of the
Government. The economy of Pakistan was at its peak and poverty graph was declining
in Pakistan during his period when many sociological changes in the country took
place.
