NEW DELHI, NOV. 16. Flush with the ``Durban success', the Prime Minister, Mr. A.B. Vajpayee, has declared that any
referendum that General Pervez Musharraf may hold on the acceptability of the military regime in Pakistan would not be found legitimate, as far as the Commonwealth was
concerned. The Commonwealth would expect immediate and concrete movement towards restoration of democracy in Pakistan.

Talking to presspersons aboard the special aircraft on the way back from the Commonwealth summit at Durban, Mr. Vajpayee formulated that ``a referendum under military regime, to ascertain whether the people of Pakistan approved of the October 12 coup, will lack credibility'.

The Prime Minister also suggested that unlike African and Caribbean nations, the Americans and `developed' members of the Commonwealth such as Britain, Canada, New Zealand and Australia were in favour of a softer treatment of the military regime in Pakistan.
