OK here is my take, somewhere in the power corridors having seen that Pee pee pee is nothing more than a gang of corrupt and perverts have started nudging things in the right direction. When coupled with Karachiites collective consciousness that 90% of Sinds tax is collected from Karachi and yet nothing is spent on it and that they are demanding Karachi should be separated from Sind and made a federal territory.
But their schemes are very slow and time consuming, in the meanwhile people suffer I don't think there has been any move at JAG to explore constitutional options, let us give them the tool or may be some concerned citizen/group of citizens/ lawyers can take it to the S.C.
Yet I don't know where to start. When I am presented with a problem I start with questions all of those that come to my mind and then start solving the problem so here goes:
1) when Pakistan came in being Karachi became the defacto Federal Capital, was it made a federal territory or it continued to be part of sind?
2) Did Karachi continue to be serve as provincial headquarter?
3) Was there any mention of Karachi being the federal capital in the first constitution or the provisional constitution?
4) If there was any mention in constitution what was it, if there was then half the case for Karachi becoming a federal territory again is won
5) or was there any notification in this regard
5) Assuming Karachi became a federal territory and there was a constitutional amendment or a notification and when Ayub Khan moved the capital to Islamabad, whether the constitutional amendment was withdrawn, whether a notification was issued that federal capital is moving to Islamabad and
Karachi is being handed over to Sind Govt. (this is the most important part)
I am hanging my assumptions with threads here, but if we get some material all we will have to do is to hand over to some media outlet like ARY etc and rest will be taken care of, Mods or others who want to explore this option need to team up, I will contribute whenever/wherever required. Knowing the competence of our bureaucracy I am sure we can get something...
