PAKISTAN

MULTAN: Pakistan Muslim League-N leader Javed Hashmi said Tuesday that nobody could prevent Hazara Division from becoming a separate province now.

Speaking at a Workers Convention here, he warned that anarchy could spread to the country if new provinces were not established. He proposed formation of a national commission to outline a policy for the establishment of new provinces in three to five months.

Hashmi said the 18th Amendment Bill was a historic decision. However, he noted there were few anomalies in the bill.

The PML-N leader said that solution of the country’s challenges was in decentralization, democracy and new provinces.
