Balochistan Governor Nawab Zulfiqar Ali Magsi said that the provincial government was in the process of formulating its recommendations for provincial autonomy through constitutional amendments.

He was answering questions from a group of under-training officers of the National Institute of Management (NIM), who called on him here. The governor said the proposals would be tabled in the Balochistan Assembly and would be sent to the federal government after their passage. […]

Magsi dismissed the notion that Sardars and Nawabs did not want development, saying that shortage of funds was the main cause of backwardness.
