its not possible to decrease the population of Karachi but it is possible to stop its increment and for these at least 3-4 cities with Mega City infrastructure capable to handle population from 3-5 million are required to be developed in Sindh Near Karachi ..... nearest options for this could be Gharro, Thatta and Nooriabad towns/citiesCity had money pouring in back then. Now it only goes out. That economical shift ensures little development.
Let's just focus on Gwadar. I believe Karachi need a population correction before any development can be discussed. Every government comes with the great master plan for the city, its nothing new. But people are deserting the city and once the population hits 8 to 10 mil. It can be build again in Pakistani image rather than colonial image it carries now.
Same is required in Baluchistan and at leat 2 cities nearest cities to Karachi and for this Hub city and Gadani city could be the options so that new comers from all over Pakistan rather to come Karachi could go to those cities for jobs and business ....
Once this will start happening some portion of population of Karachi would also move to those cities, but at the mean time try to maintain at least the existing infrastructure of Karachi city.
But we know this will never happen
