Senators question devolved ministries’ ‘revival’

The Senate Standing Committee on Devolution has raised alarms over the potential re-establishment of federal ministries in areas already devolved to the provinces per the 18th Amendment. This move is seen as a challenge to the constitutional changes that aimed to give more autonomy to provincial governments. The committee has taken the step to form a subcommittee to delve into these violations, signaling a serious stance against any attempts to undermine provincial powers. This issue is significant as it touches on the fundamental restructuring of federal-provincial relations in Pakistan.
