FM Qureshi presents constitutional amendment bill for creating South Punjab

.
I don't think Punjab assembly has passed any such motion with two third majority before which is a requirement for such division. A simple motion was passed i think but not with two third majority.

Punjab Assembly already passed a resolution on South Punjab.


for this hope for 2/3 majority of pti in next election. then pti can eliminate 18th amendment and then join karachi with federal.

2/3 is not only required in Fed but also Sindh province to make Karachi province. Will People of Sindh gove 2/3 rs majority to PTI in 2023 election ?
 
.
Split country into 33 administrative units for better management but they have to get rid of 18 amendment.
There is a trade off. Nothing is for free!

Your government will get bloated. Developing countries cannot afford this increased access to services that citizens of richer countries have access to. :undecided:

You must be naive. Almost 20+ politicians joined PTI before 2018 election on the promise that PTI will create south Punjab province. They had no hope from PMLN so they bet on PTI. Now PTI is just fulfilling its promise. And if you have friends from South Punjab zones, try asking them about South Punjab. They are demanding separate province since decades now.
More accurately, I'm uninformed. I do not follow Pakistani politics to the level that you will. It is simply typical for politicians to create regional administrative areas to establish their base. It is a common occurrence in every part of the world. :cheers:

It serves Shah mehmood qireshi also as he is the peer or murshed in Multan and as per reports Multan will be Provincial capital of South Punjab. Hence, SMQ , his sons and his grand sons can take turns on CM'ship once they get it done.

End me sab apna mafaad he Hy. It's just that this time motive of Politicians and Citizens are aligned to serve both.

Clever .. Very Clever and timely. Perfect step.

Saath mein Karachi ko bhi province bana do. Your party will anyway not win much in Sindh. By making Karachi a new province, Imran can get assured seats from the city and City will get better administration which it desperately needs.

Stupid move making new province would increase ethnic nationalism in Pakistan and federal government would become totally irrelevant

Modi get stronger as he keeps weakening his opponents. IK rose when he destroyed image of NS. This is a common practice, in Pakistan provinces are too strong hence fed usually find itself being blackmailed by provinces. There is a need of 6-7 provinces, it will serve people well as well as give more strength to fed by relatively weakening provinces.

Bro for any change to geographical details of a province, you need go ahead (2/3rd majority) from not just parliament but also the exact province you want to break in pieces. IK need 2/3rd in Sindh to make Karachi province, if he have 2/3rd in Sindh they he don't need to make Karachi as he already have 2/3rd. It's a bit of dilemma.

This is why I said karachi to include with federal and not making karachi separate province.

Karachi next?

wadera mafias only source of money is khi and dha mafia takes a big chunk of their income so not happening!

Brahmos fell on South Punjab, no one cared. Now they will all paint south Punjab as some systematically oppressed province all for the exploitation of cheap labor found in the region.
I'm not sure if you favour division of Punjab or not but you can surely be more positive in your thinking. Pakistan is one country and we own and love all of it. When South Punjab is being made a province, it matters that's why it is being given a provincial capital and a budget of its own, as well governance by it sown people.

You wouldn't find many opponents to practicality in Pakistan. Everyone wants to lessen the administrative burden. It's not some Socratic fiction copyrighted by one or the other political party or reality.

Government simply doesn't have the intellectual capacity to pull this through. Why not start with something smaller like making Khyber a different province and Pakhtunkhwa a different province. The recently formed South Punjab secretariat is hardly functional nor ground level preparation sorted.

This will only lead to a futile polity.

CM Punjab should have filed it instead of FM.

You want to divided KP which doesn't have a demand for it and not divide Punjab which wants to be divided? I thought you cared for South Punjab but looks like you don't.

Why don't you jump in and give PTI government a hand in better governance? You know they are sincere in helping South Punjab as Usman Buzdar despite opposition is given a chance to improve South Punjab and direct funds towards the region that needs it the most. When there's honesty of intention, Help of Allah will be with them as well.

Have faith. May be offer your help or prayers at least so they may succeed. Can you?
