Right now, the only problem is the division of sindh and karachi. Balochistan is a hornet nest and no one would like to touch it now and South Punjab is a low hanging fruit for Hafiz sb. PML-N government is more dependent on him than PPP and will be easier to agree. However, zardari, the president who has to sign the paper, will only play ball if you do not touch its power base, be it creation of Karachi province or division of Sindh.I think it very unlikely that Munir, a Punjabi who is also the head of the Punjabi Establishment is going to dismantle its power base, which is the Punjab province. It is far more likely he dismantles the smaller provinces into even smaller, more manageable entities.
However, zardari "may" be more receptive if
a)
Hazara province in kpk and a Bahawalpur province is created in Punjab.
This gives him a fighting chance in the new Bahawalpur province.
b)
Sadiqabad tehsil of rahim yar khan district and Rojhan tehsil of rajanpur district (plus a few UCs of Rahimyar khan tensile that link sadiqabad and rojhaan tehsils) are combined with Qambar shahdadkot, kashmore, Jacoabad, Larkana, Ghotki, sukkur, parts of Dadu (Mehar taluka and khairpur nethan shah taluka) and parts of khairpur district ( kingri gambar and khairpur talukas) to form a new province and
Karachi, hyderabad etc are not touched at all.
Why I believe so is because, this will make zardari a king maker for a decade plus/minus, I say this because
1.
It gives PPP hold of both provinces. Sindh via nawabshah aka Benazirabad and zardari family in the new province.
2.
It divides GDA and PPP dissidents power and vote bank, which is a pain for ppp in some districts e.g. Dadu and Ghotki.
3.
It gives zardari family control of a new hypotehtical area that would be rich to plunder e.g. 90% Fertilizer industry of Pakistan and sizable gas reserves.
Long story short, a small win for Pakistan, we get rid of sharif family in near term and then we pray that Zardari soon visits the wife he got rid off. Bilo rani will never be a jackal as zardari or as smart as BB. Karachi will eventually become a new province.
