Sources say that resolutions were passed secretly by delaying the agenda from the Sindh Assembly.

According to Sindh government sources, the powers were given to the federation based on Article 144 of the Constitution, resolutions were passed due to intense pressure on the Rekodic Agreement.

Sources say that companies working on mineral resources did not want to enter into a contract without the federation.
