Karachi Tops List of World's Fastest Growing Megacities

[INDIC]

nice joke, i guess you need proper brain and education gigawatt

Lahore is far better than Karachi while Indian cities are far better than Pakistan cities. Even looking at the vintage buses on the roads on Karachi give me the sense of suffocation.

Old parts are Delhi are unplanned, just like old crummy parts of Karachi. However Karachi has no equivalent to New Delhi, South Delhi, Gurgaon and Noida.

Its a fact. You can choose to live in denial.

sorry bro, you need to prove little more than that in town planning karachi is way ahead of dehli, i cant just simply believe that wht you are saying is the fact

previously you compared kolkata(shanty town) to karachi which is totally baseless and i proved how shanty town cant be compared to karachi

now here is hyderabad, another shanty town planning

Hyderabad, Andhra Pradesh, India - Google Maps

now i dunno what you are reffering to town planning, but its pretty much evident how shanty town planning is this?

and this is dehli

Delhi, India - Google Maps

and this is karachi, you can zoon out even till entire city is visible and still you can detect the straight lines and symmetry

OMG are you an idiot to decide planning based on google maps? search for london and paris, they too look shanty by your logic or perhaps African cities will look 'planned'

Karachi grew into a huge city after the massive influx of refugees after partition. So, you will see square shaped towns in Karachi that were designed in 47 to settle them, while Hyderabad, Delhi or Kolkata are historical cities even with that the basic infrastructure in our cities are better than your Karachi.

Even our railway stations looks better than your airports.

dude, karachi didnt grew into refugee camp, it grew into a planned city

your point? does the map tells anything about the city's ground structure? i would rather prefer comparing karachi with calcutta on google earth. perhaps they would look similar

 

[gslv mk3]

new developing areas of Kolkata and projects

245 metres tall

210 metres tall

 

[iam not greek]

This is dwarka, a subcity in New Delhi.
this is planned and might not look same on map due to its density

whats the point of arguement here?

you said you wont see those lines and symmetry in london and paris i showed you

perhaps you need to think harder

you can develop your cities all you want but they will develop from a shanty town planning, so my dear point is not development but town planning

when you develop a city first of all you care is to plan the city, anybody can do the development, destroy it and then do new developments but the town planning cant be changed once the city is developed

all the developed cities in the world like london, paris, new york, etc have a well planned cities thats entirely my point here
