So rediculous , can't even make a underground , mega pipe to move emergency water out towards desert plains of Balohistan or artificial lake

All this water which could be blessing , and used as a source for watering gardens and trees green city is now a Curse !!!

Not sure why Army is waiting till people pick up bats and hockey sticks and start rioting

Instead of picking hockeys and sticks people should help government and army in cleaning nalas and pipelines.

I see a bloody end of this, very soon. What people of Karachi should or should have done, if it was discussions earlier, then it would have been good.
I am sorry guys, Pakistan might loose Karachi very soon. But we intimated here, several times, but anyway.
Ab tum mujhe aasteen cherha ker kahogi: kisi k baap ka hai Karachi. baap ka nahi hai, per ham log insan hain. Or haq beherhal cheen ker lyna perhta hai.

Pictures of Karachi.

12 years since PPP is ruling Sindh.

10 years since 18th Amendment was passed in National Assembly

For many years MQM was part and was in coalition with the government.

Yet.
MQM PPP blame each other and even blame Federal for not cooperating for the development of Karachi.

Constructing a mega pipe for Karachi is not a big task. It can be easily undertaken if Sindh government pays attention. Diverting a little more fund to get rid of this rain water wouldn't hurt Pakistan. Federal government needs to take a huge step for Karachi.
