To evaluate the impact of the 2010 Eighteenth Amendment on constitutional reform, fiscal federalism, and provincial autonomy.
Analyzed legal and institutional decentralization frameworks introduced under Pakistan's Eighteenth Constitutional Amendment.
Assessed subnational governance structures, intergovernmental fiscal relations, and local government devolution under Article 140A.
The constitutional amendment successfully established legal foundations for decentralization and expanded provincial autonomy.
Practical implementation remains limited by subnational administrative capacity constraints, intergovernmental fiscal tensions, and stalled devolution to local governments under Article 140A.
