A Practical Fix: Reorganize Sindh, Empower Cities
Administrative overload is real. The answer is functional reorganization, not federal seizure. A workable Sindh framework would create seven administrative units, each with elected local governments and clear mandates:
-
Karachi Region – Urban economic hub; metropolitan authority with policing, zoning, transport, and building control.
-
Lower Sindh (Thatta–Banbhore) – Coastal/delta governance; fisheries, ports, climate resilience.
-
Hyderabad Region – Mixed urban-rural; irrigation, agro-processing.
-
Mirpur Khas (Thar) – Desert economy; mining, livestock, water security.
-
Shaheed Benazirabad – Agricultural heartland; value chains and logistics.
-
Sukkur Region – Barrage management; riverine agriculture.
-
Larkana Region – Heritage and rural development.
This model reduces load, sharpens accountability, and ends the farce where Karachi’s revenue cannot fix Karachi’s roads.
