Idiotic premise.

Development should be devolved to provinces and districts. It is not responsibility of central government to ensure development in all geographical locations. Individual districts should be responsible for that. There is no country in the world where federating units are equally developed, anyways.

Ideally, Punjab, Sindh, Baluchistan and KPK should be divided into ~10 provinces with each province responsible for development for their own area. Federal government should only be concerned with long term planning and resource distribution, as far as development goes.

There are very few countries in the world having such uneven development as well. More than creating 40-50 provinces, I believe devolution of power through an effective local government system is the way to go.
