Many of your points are off and outdated, but I understand your anger.First of all the whole budget for FATA is not more then 20 billion this 110 billion is bullshit. 110 billion is the FATA Merger package and will only be for 5 years.
Now lets come back to the real figures, the actual budget is 20 billion for 6 million people. Out of those 20 billion Governor and political agents (chosen by the federation not by us tribals) expenditure alone is not less then 5 billion.
Now lets do the math.
15000000000/6000000 = 2500 Rs.
Thats only 2500 Rs being spent on every tribal for a year. Does that figure look like more then what is spent on people of punjab to you??
You blamed tribal elites ( dont know what the fk do you mean by that coz IN TRIBAL AREAS WE HAVE ELDERS NOT ELITES OR SARDARS go and study some of our culture first and then pass comments on). Now the only people who spend those pennies promised to us by the federation are spent by people chosen by the federation itself not by us tribals, where that money goes?? God knows where the fk they spend that money coz there is little over zero investment by the government in last 70 years (not a single university or a hospital in FATA for 6 million people). My wild guess about the spending would be that all that money is being spent through law inforcing agencies like FC and Lavies. Now my Question here from you is Why the fk would you comment a bullcrap when you have zero freaking idea about FATA and its people? Have you ever been to any of the tribal areas?
And these budgetary figures are for coming years.
FATA has a university and had over 35 new colleges built in around 2013-2014 alone. Military also spent large portions of it's own budgets to establish cadet colleges, hundreds of schools, job centers and de-radicalization centers, markets and ect...
The reason why development was not rushed in before was because of FATA's instability - the Taliban for example burned down 67 schools in 2007-2010 alone and held huge swaths of territory, curbing any development.
Another issue is that little to no revenue is acquired from FATA, even electricity bills are not collected - so the development of FATA depends on federal, military and provincial help (mostly Punjab and KPK). It is crucial that FATA gets merged into KPK, this would thrust the development forward - inshallah.
Personally i'm against federal system. Pakistan should have a strong central Government and Pakistan should be divided into at least around 15 smaller provinces.
