He said that non-democratic forces wished to derail and delay the election process. He reiterated that efforts were being made to install an unconstitutional setup for two to three years.Answering a question, the senior PPP leader said that efforts were being made to create conditions similar to the 1977 general elections, and that a 'Sword of Damocles' was 'hanging over democracy'.
