Q1. A teacher marks a map task “FATA administrative merger into a province” and asks which numbered reform package you should cite in an exam note. Which amendment is the standard answer?
Answer: The Twenty-Fifth Amendment Act 2018
Explanation: The Twenty-Fifth Constitutional Amendment, passed in May 2018, merged the Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA) into Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, ending the FATA's separate administrative status that dated to the colonial era. This brought tribal belt residents under the jurisdiction of the provincial government, courts, and legislature for the first time.
