 Timeline of One Unit Abolition

1. March 1970:
   • President General Yahya Khan announced in March 1970 through the Legal Framework Order (LFO) that the One Unit system would be abolished.
   • This was the declaration/announcement date, not the actual dissolution.
2. 1 July 1970:
   • The One Unit Scheme was officially dissolved.
   • The four provinces (Punjab, Sindh, NWFP, and Balochistan) were restored as separate entities.

     Exam-Style Clarification:

• Announced (Declaration): March 1970
• Actually Abolished (Implementation): 1 July 1970

     So if the exam asks:

• “When was One Unit abolished?” → 1 July 1970 (Correct date of abolition)
• “When was the abolition announced?” → March 1970.
