Democracy, constitutional supremacy owe a lot to common people’s sacrifices: NA speaker

ISLAMABAD, Apr 22 (APP):National Assembly Speaker Raja Pervaiz Ashraf on Friday said democracy and constitutional supremacy owed a lot to the sacrifices of common people.

He said democracy was the only solution to all issues faced by the common people. He further said as a nation we should remove all the differences to uphold the supremacy of the Constitution and rule of law.
To a query he said the Monument of Democracy would be renovated to keep the struggles of common people alive for democracy.
