A viral video has ignited political debate after Karachi Bar Association President Amir Nawaz Warraich made a contentious claim. He stated that a constitutional amendment expected in December 2025 would divide Sindh into three regions. He identified these regions as Sindh, Karachi and Mehran. He delivered the remarks during a recent public event in Karachi.
Warraich alleged that the proposed restructuring was part of a decided process. He insisted that no political card was being played. He framed the move as an effort to resolve longstanding administrative challenges. His claims have not received any confirmation from the government. Officials have not commented on the reported plan.
Context of Amendment Discussions
These claims surfaced as discussions continue around a possible 28th Constitutional Amendment. The debate followed recent political discourse on the 27th Amendment. Earlier, Senator Faisal Vawda said the 27th Amendment strengthened the balance of power. He said it improved coordination between parliament and state institutions. He also urged policymakers to begin preparations for the next amendment.
Journalist Kamran Khan added further speculation about the expected amendment. He suggested it might include new provinces or administrative units. He said it could shift financial and administrative powers to local governments. He also said it might grant constitutional protection to the Provincial Finance Commission.
Growing Speculation and Unverified Reports
Journalist Zahid Gishkori said the amendment could address several sensitive issues. He mentioned possible changes involving the Election Commission and parliamentary tenure. He also pointed to dual nationality concerns and new provincial boundaries.
Unverified posts on X have pushed the debate further. Some posts claimed that discussions involve as many as 12 new provinces. These claims lack official confirmation. Government authorities have not endorsed any restructuring plan. Political observers therefore urge caution over unverified information.
