Pictures from cities: Karachi

[S.Y.A]

Karachi desperately needs attention. What you have shown in this thread is a small part of Karachi, the rest is being neglected by the good for nothing sindh govt. first priority: better sewage system, then roads and greenery, and then public transport. destruction and removal of illegal squatter settlements and katchi abadis (like sohrab goth, those along railway lands, gujjar nala, orangi town etc) is a necessity, these people do not pay any taxes, they do not pay any bills, but are are involved in large scale land and utilities theft as well as providing safe havens to criminals.

also, old areas like saddar and liaquatbad, in fact the whole tower to karimabad corridor, and gurumander to nazimabad corridor etc need to be destroyed and rebuilt.

story of karachi is over, the city is doomed to fail, both the federal and provincial govt is pushing for the city to fail.

karachiites should rise up and demand their rights otherwise these things will keep going to the point of no return.

One thing which really disappointed me about Karachi on my last visit was the state of colonial era buildings. There are so many buildings which if properly maintained would give the city a great look, sadly almost all were in dilapidated condition

Good to see new areas and new composition in pictures of Karachi.

Karachi needs massive amount of trees, massive tree plantation on the scale of 1 tree for 1 person can make this city clean and green. Looking at the success of Billion Tree Tsunami in KPK this can be done here with the required political and local support.

Karachi has all the strength to make it a truly great city...improve the public transport system, local buses in large numbers and not BRTS, improved garbage collection and disposal, water supply and some basics here and there will turn around the city.
