Sind government gave them the order no? Last time i checked PPP is not an engineering/construction company of course they will hire FWO, heck even PTI and every other party does. See again the tractors/garbage trucks that come in my area usually are flagless and the Garbage trucks have Sind Gov written on them so make of that what you will. I see these same trucks while moving through Saddar and other localities so suffice to say i see them doing the main workload. Dustbins too have Sind Gov written on them (although they are not emptied often and usually overflow). So really in my opinion they are taking the major workload in those areas. But yes you may be right in that in other areas PTI is leading the responsibility in taking advantage of areas where Sind Gov has not been actively participating in such activities.
Indeed the Nullah clearing probably has Federal backing however prior to the package as i described above waste disposal was done from what i have seen that way. (not saying it's great either)
Just clarifying that i am not supporting or glorifying PPP activities but simply stating what i have observed during my time.
Bro Nullah reconstruction are federal government projects and are funded directly from center. FWO is given contract by center. The only work in Sindh government domain is anti encroachment around the work area, which falls in the domain of local departments.
I will not disagree with your post but my point was different ( I was not saying that local departments are being paid for by federal government), the local garbage collector does come in my area too but charges 400 Rs for garbage collection and 900 Rs for cleaning the road in front of the house (which should not be the case as he is a government employee). I know the large bins where they dumb the garbage but it almost always full, this is what I was mentioning too that before the rain season PTI people arranged for its clearance and now again its the same.
I am not talking about a specific area, in fact the entirety of the city except DHA whatever little road carpeting or drainage work is done, majority is done by PTI local MNA's, which is a recent phenomenon maybe just last year or so after they got some funds. Before that one would hardly come across any sort of work.
The point of my post was where are the development funds for this city for the past 13 years, even basic sense of being organised is lacking. I came to Karachi first ( like settled not on vacation every year or 2) in 2009, spent 5 1/2 years than left came back in 2019. The city is almost the same but just more high rises. Nothing changed in fact the problems only got worse. previously I had water now I don't, Infrastructure be it water, drainage, small local roads were better before. The city is just expanding on all directions without any planning, just give bribe and build whatever you want where ever you want. Housing society on a farm land, commercial project on a residential plot. No law no regulation no checks and balance no order just need be able to pay .
