Government of Sindh (Sindhi: حڪومت سنڌ हुकूमत सिन्ध‎) constitutes the provincial administration of Sindh, Pakistan, operating under the constitutional framework established by the 1973 Constitution. The province's administrative structure comprises 30 districts organised under 7 divisions, all falling within its authority and jurisdiction.

The executive authority and governmental leadership is vested in the Chief Secretary of Sindh, who serves as both the administrative head and leader of the provincial government. All governmental officers and cabinet members report directly to the Chief Secretary, who is appointed by the Prime Minister of Pakistan. The position of Chief Secretary of Sindh is typically held by an officer of Grade 22, drawn from the Pakistan Administrative Service.

While the Governor officially holds the position of provincial head on paper, this role is largely ceremonial in nature. The substantive governmental powers are exercised by the Chief Secretary of Sindh and the Chief Minister of Sindh.

The province operates under a unicameral legislative system, with the head of government designated as the Chief Minister. The Chief Minister, who is invariably a political party leader represented in the provincial Assembly, appoints members of the provincial Cabinet.

Official documentation frequently refers to the administration as either "Government of Sindh" or "Sindh Government." The seat of government is located in Karachi, which thereby serves as the provincial capital.

Executive[edit | edit source]

The Chief Secretary Sindh, as head of the provincial bureaucracy, is the boss of the province. The provincial Chief Secretary of Grade-22 is equivalent in rank to a Federal Secretary, is appointed by the Prime Minister of Pakistan. Under him comes the entire Government of Sindh.
