SHUJABAD AGRO INDUSTRIES (PVT.) LTD. VS FEDERATION OF PAKISTAN through Secretary Ministry of Energy (Petroleum Division) art. 158---Priority of requirements of natural gas---Invoking priority of requirement---Locus standi---Provision of art. 158 of the Constitution gives precedence in meeting requirements from a gas well-head situated in that Province---Such precedence is with the aim of addressing an issue, should one arise, between that Province and Federal Government over the use of gas from a well-head---Prerogative of Provincial Government under art. 158 of the Constitution exists but it does not give actionable cause to a person other than the concerned Provincial Government to invoke the same---It may well be that a Provincial Government decides not to invoke that prerogative for political considerations or to maintain unity of the Federation, or barters that prerogative with another Province or the Federation for another resource keeping in view the over-all requirements of the Province.
