The Sindh government has reacted to Federal Minister Aleem Khan’s call for new provinces in the country. PPP spokesperson Sadia Javed advised Aleem Khan to first focus on Punjab before demanding new provinces in Sindh.
Aleem Khan recently launched a movement advocating for the creation of new provinces to address Pakistan’s longstanding governance issues. He stated that administrative restructuring, rather than renaming existing provinces, is needed to improve efficiency.
According to Aleem Khan, Punjab is too large to be effectively governed with just a single high court. He argued that creating more provinces would allow for better administration and faster public service delivery.
He also clarified that the proposal does not involve changing provincial names. The main goal, he said, is to resolve governance problems by dividing provinces for more focused administration.
Regarding Sindh, Aleem Khan remarked that the provincial government should prioritize effective governance. He suggested that even appointing multiple chief ministers could help address citizens’ issues more efficiently. “The priority should be solving people’s problems,” he emphasized.
The federal minister added that his proposal for new provinces has already gained support from MQM and other political parties, showing growing political backing for the initiative.
Sadia Javed responded by stating that Sindh’s government is committed to addressing public needs and that demands for new provinces should be weighed carefully to avoid political tensions.
The debate over creating new provinces reflects broader discussions on administrative reforms in Pakistan. Supporters argue it can improve governance, while opponents warn it may fuel political disputes and regional divisions.
As the conversation continues, policymakers and political leaders are expected to debate the feasibility, benefits, and challenges of creating new provinces across Pakistan.
