Abstract
Eighteenth Constitutional Amendment was passed on 20th April 2010 due to the tireless work of Rabbani led Constitutional Amendment Committee comprised of almost all major and minor parties. It was thought to be a milestone in the constitutional history of Pakistan and was applauded across the country that democracy might be strengthened and power might be devolved to the lower tiers and now people would be able to solve their problems at the doorstep. But after the lapse of more than eight years, problems still arise and the federating units are doubtful of the role of the federal government. The current study is an analysis and critical evaluation of the role of political parties who played a major role in the formulation of the 18th amendment and a way to provincial autonomy but failed to implement it in true letter and spirit. Challenges to these parties have also been given a space in this paper.
