among the federating units. Since the distribution of revenue assets is considered a
very technical and critical issue with its far reaching implications between the
federation and the federating units, any kind of misappropriation causes economic,
social and political discontent in the centre- province relationship. In the federation
of Pakistan it is noticed that there is inter-provincial disparities in income
distribution, capabilities in tax collection and expenditure disbursement. Through
the constitution of Pakistan most of the revenues are collected by the Federal
Government and then they are redistributed between the federal and provincial
governments and then amongst the provinces under an arrangement called the
National Finance Commission Award. The National Finance Commission was
established in 1951 with following objectives, to support the provincial governments
to meet their expenses and to reduce the horizontal imbalances among the
provinces, ‘the depending of the revenue capacity of the constituent units of the
federation. Again the provincial government was strongly complainant against the
federal government not helping and fulfilling the legal requirements needed for the
external support of the power projects
