ISLAMABAD, Oct 6 (PTI) - Amid intense criticism of the government for its inept handling of the flood relief work, Pakistan President Asif Ali Zardari has warned that "non-state actors" wanted to take over the country by weakening the democratic system.

It would be dangerous for the whole region if these "non-state actors" succeed in their plans, Zardari said, without identifying such elements.

However, he expressed confidence that there would be no political change in the country through undemocratic means.
