 6 things to know about the FATA-KPK merger

by Asar Zaidi
15 December
Editorial Politics

A Brief Introduction

The Federally Administrative Tribal Areas (FATA) is located in the North-Western

part of Pakistan. It consists of seven tribal agencies and six frontier regions.
After independence, different governments of Pakistan tried to merge it with
Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KPK) but due to administrative and legal issues they
remained unsuccessful. On March 2, 2017 the federal cabinet approved the merger
of KPK and FATA.

FATA and KPK

Presently, public outrage can be witnessed as the majority of political parties

including Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf and Awami National Party demand an early
merger. However, the government is delaying it, probably because it’s allies
from FATA (including JUI-F) oppose the merger; although the majority of tribal
leaders are in support of the merger and are protesting along with the
aforementioned political parties in Islamabad.

So, here we are-sharing some historical facts related to the KPK – FATA merger
which will help you understand this matter more clearly:

1) Fata is directly administrated by a federal government

President Mamnoon Hussain

The governor of KPK administrates the tribal areas on behalf of the President of
Pakistan. According to the constitution of Pakistan, the Governor of KPK
appoints administrative heads of each tribe known as ‘Political Agents’. He is
also considered to be a representative of the ‘President of Pakistan’.

2) During the British rule, tribal areas were administrated through a law known
as FCR

Poster against FCR

The FCR (frontier crimes regulations) is still in-practice in FATA although

certain amendments have been made to it.

3) According to FCR, Parliament of Pakistan cannot play any role in the affairs
of FATA
Parliament of Pakistan

Despite having it’s representatives in National Assembly, the above stands true.
Only the President of Pakistan can interfere in any decision or constitutional
amendment. Except the President, no one can interfere in FATA’s affairs.

4) A Committee formulated by the government to resolve KPK / FATA matters

suggest abrogation of FCR and replacing it with “Tribal Areas Riwaj Act”

A jirga in session

According to this act, as per ‘riwaj’ a Jirga will hear all criminal and Civil
Cases but it will be appointed by the Judge, not by a political agent. In this
way, tribes will remain integrated with their riwaj but will be under the
jurisdiction of courts.

5) Jurisdiction of Pakistan’s Supreme Court is null and void and

non-implementable in Frontier Areas till now, as per article 247 and 248 of
Pakistan’s constitution.

Supreme Court of Pakistan

6) It consists of two types of areas which include seven tribal agencies and six
frontier areas which are as follows:

Agencies:
Bajaur Agency
Mohmand Agency
Khyber Agency
Orakzai Agency
Kurram Agency
North Waziristan Agency
South Waziristan Agency.

Map of Fata

Frontier Regions will include:

Frontier region peshawar.
Frontier region Kohat.
Frontier region Bannu.
Frontier region Lakki marwat.
Frontier region Tank
Frontier region Dera Ismael Khan.

6) FATA still operates under Jirga system

FATA has jirgas in place of courts

The Judiciary System of FATA is quite different from the other provinces of
Pakistan. As stated earlier, the people do not have access to courts so the
jirga system is considered as a replacement. Representatives of Tribes decide
the fate of people and their decisions are considered irreversible until the
president himself intervenes and requests them to revise their decision. One of
the fundamental purposes of merging FATA with KPK, is to monitor the jigra’s
decision’s under the jurisdiction of courts.

The Present Situation

During the recent meeting related to the KPK – FATA merger,a consensus was
developed between all stakeholders on a three point agenda:
Merger of Fata with KPK
Extension of Peshawar High Court’s jurisdiction in FATA
FATA member’s representation in the KPK provincial assembly.

The Pakistani Flag

Pakistan is a democratic nation and every individual of this country should have
equal rights. Unfortunately, since the independence of Pakistan, the people of
FATA have remained politically undermined without proper democratic rights and
infrastructural development. Now is the time to implement this historic decision
without any further delay and let the people of FATA come out in the mainstream
politics of Pakistan.

Not only will the merger provide political and legal rights to FATA’s people but
it will also elevate the developmental scale in the agencies and frontier areas.
Political representatives will have access to the provincial assembly where they
can raise the voice for infrastructural development, literacy issues, health
care concerns etc. It is high time the government implemented this merger. The
people of FATA have suffered enough.
