The term "ex-FATA/NMDs" refers to the former Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA) and the merger with the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province in Pakistan. FATA was a region in northwestern Pakistan that was administered separately from the rest of the country under the British colonial era's Frontier Crimes Regulations. It consisted of seven agencies and six frontier regions, which had a distinct legal and administrative framework.
