Purpose: The present study intends to analyze the Pakistan People’s Party government period from 2008 to 2013 after the demise of its leader Benazir Bhutto. The study is about the PPPP government on the issue of legislation in the parliament so a qualitative method is used for this purpose. Method: The topic is related to legislation, so the primary and secondary sources used with the complete lists of legislation from 2008-2013 from the parliament websites and documents. Main Findings: It was found that the legislative process was fast during the PPPP regime. Still, some areas of governance remained neglected like health, education, energy, etc. Overall the democratic values and coalition strategies supported the government in the completion of its tenure. Application of the Study: It is recommended that ruling elites must focus on good governance and citizens' well-being rather than their opposition. Novelty/originality of the study: This study has a distinction from other studies in the sense that the way of the legislative process of PPP has never been assessed before in the context of their performance. This study will make able to understand the importance of PPP’s government in place of democratic norms
