Abstract

This study was conducted with an aim to analyze student’s perceptions regarding the impact of Frontier Crimes Regulations on the lives of the inhabitants of Federally Administered Tribal Area of Pakistan. Further, the study also aimed at understanding the views of FATA students about the future of Frontier Crimes Regulations. A total of 200 students of Hazara University Mansehra belonging to different Federally Administered Tribal Areas were purposively selected and their responses were taken through structured questionnaires. The collected data was analyzed through descriptive statistics. Findings suggest that Frontier Crime Regulations have a significant and negative impact on the social, legal, cultural and political aspects of the people of Federally Administered Tribal Areas. It is generally concluded that majority of the participants from the area were not satisfied with Frontier Crimes Regulations and thereby demanded that these regulations should be abolished and the regions must be brought under the administration of provincial department.
