Re: New Provinces : Bahawalpur, Multan and Hazarah
Still we dont know which areas would be a part of South Punjab, who will decide the boundaries? Better way should have been to conduct something like a referendum in the concerned districts like Bahawalpur, Bahawalnagar (am not really sure as many Punjabis there too), Multan, DG Khan, RYK, Bhakkar etc to gauge if they want to remain a part of Punjab or join South Punjab. Some people want to include Mianwali and Jhang into the province as well. Although I am not sure if the people of those areas would want to join South Punjab or not. If they want to create a province on the basis of language, then almost 50 % of the people in South Punjab are Punjabis. Whats the basis of formation of the province?
