Mohsin Naqvi Proposes Referendum on Creation of New Provinces<\/h2>\n

LAHORE, November 13:<\/strong> Federal Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi has proposed holding a public referendum to determine whether Pakistan should create additional provinces or administrative units.<\/p>\n

Speaking to journalists during a visit to the National Cyber Crime Investigation Agency, Naqvi said a referendum could help resolve the long-running political debate over the creation of new provinces.<\/p>\n

He argued that public opinion should play an important role in determining the country’s administrative structure.<\/p>\n

The minister also said political parties would be consulted before any decision was made.<\/p>\n

The proposal has renewed discussion about administrative reforms, provincial governance and the distribution of public resources.<\/p>\n

Pakistan’s provincial structure has remained a subject of political debate, with different political parties presenting varying positions on the issue.<\/p>\n

However, creating new provinces would require constitutional and parliamentary processes.<\/p>\n

No final decision on establishing additional provinces was announced in the report.<\/p>\n
