State Governance
Governance of the Union States is divided between the federal and state governments. Each Union State has a unicameral legislature. Following the Northabbey model, the State Governments are led by First Ministers, who are members of the state legislature from the majority party. State elections are held every 5 years which, since 1995, have been at the same time as federal elections.
Governance related to lower-level administration is further devolved from state governments to local authorities; the Provincial and Communal Councils. Whilst state governments hold jurisdiction over local authorities, the federal government can request the Monarch to invoke Article X of the Constitution, granting the Governor the right to intervene and potentially suspend the State Government.
The federal constitution outlines the following duties to be exercised by the state governments:
- Management of transportation and local infrastructure
- Provision of emergency services (excluding the police since 1965)
- Local planning and zoning
- Education outside of the national curriculum
Since independence, the federal government has slowly reduced the powers granted to the state governments, including amending the constitution to transfer any unprescribed powers from state governments to the federal government, which has led to increasing popularity of secession movements in the states of Tarkhana, Sasipur and Pinjar. During the Emergency, the 12th Amendment transferred jurisdiction of the police from state governments to the federal government.
