Islamabad: Granting provincial status need of the hour: Naqvi

Federal minister Chaudhry Salik Hussain and Dr. Muhammad Amjad met with Federal Interior Minister Syed Mohsin Naqvi to discuss the political landscape, potential new provinces, and administrative reforms in Pakistan. Naqvi emphasized the urgent need for additional provinces to ensure national stability, foster development, and address pressing public concerns. He noted that despite a rapidly growing population, Pakistan's administrative framework remains outdated and inefficient.

Naqvi argued that conferring provincial status on Islamabad, the federal capital, is imperative for the country's progress. Ch. Salik suggested that expanding the number of provinces would guarantee equitable distribution of resources and prompt delivery of public services. Dr. Amjad wholeheartedly agreed with the proposal, considering it a commendable initiative that caters to the needs of the people of Islamabad.

He further pointed out that a provincial assembly would empower citizens by allowing them to elect their own representatives, thus strengthening democratic principles and local governance.
