Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) Chief Minister Ali Amin Gandapur has written a letter to Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, expressing concerns over a federal committee formed to oversee funds for the merged districts.

According to Express News, Gandapur’s letter highlights his reservations regarding the committee’s formation, specifically its handling of funds allocated for the merged districts of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, following the 25th constitutional amendment.

In the letter, Gandapur reminded Prime Minister Sharif that under the 25th amendment, the merged districts were incorporated into Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, granting the provincial government full administrative powers over these areas. He argued that the formation of the federal committee was not only unconstitutional but also undermined the province’s authority.

“This notification of the committee is a violation of the constitution and an infringement on the provincial government’s authority. The federal government should revoke this notification,” Gandapur stated in the letter.

Gandapur further added that if the issue remains unresolved, the provincial government may seek legal redress by approaching the higher judiciary to assert its constitutional rights.
