APPP co-chairman Asif Ali Zardari Tuesday said journalism is a main pillar of democracy.
He said PPP was working for media freedom since its inception.
He also gave the good news to the journalists by revealing that senior journalist Hamid Mir has been reinstated and also initiated a clap to applaud the move.
Congratulating journalist Hamid Mir for being allowed back on-air, he said that nobody had a right to silence anyone in a democracy.
"In my five years as president, journalists disagreed with me and made allegations [but] I endured it all. This is a democracy," he said, in an apparent criticism of the government's crackdown on electronic media.
