No proposal for new provinces on agenda, existing system remains effective: Rana Sanaullah
Rana Sanaullah, the prime minister’s adviser on political matters, stated on Tuesday that the administration has no plans to establish additional provinces and that Pakistan’s current parliamentary system and constitutional framework are still in place.
The top PML-N politician told a private television channel that the Azad Jammu and Kashmir elections were free and fair and that the party had gained public support because of its track record of development and governance in Punjab.
He expressed optimism that the PML-N would also perform well in the remaining phase and eventually form the government in Azad Kashmir without coalition partners, claiming that the Pakistan Peoples Party had approached the second phase of the elections with a propaganda campaign.
In response to PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari’s criticism of the electoral process, Rana stated that Bilawal was aware that the polls had been handled fairly and that the PPP will accept the results following the last round of voting.
In response to inquiries concerning plans to establish new provinces, Rana Sanaullah stated that the PML-N has not convened a conference to deliberate on the matter.
He claimed that neither Pakistan’s parliamentary democratic system nor the 1973 Constitution had any flaws and that the federation had survived political upheavals, military actions, and unstable times during the previous fifty years thanks to the constitutional framework.
Rana went on to remark that the inability to apply the Constitution in its true spirit was the underlying problem, not the system itself, and that if constitutional principles were properly upheld, the current system would continue to function.
