After Punjab and Islamabad, Karachi is also getting a mobile application that will allow people to buy fruits and vegetables at government-approved rates.
Commissioner Karachi, Ifthikhar Shallwani, revealed this during a TV interview on Tuesday, saying that the idea for this application is based on the Durust Daam app being used in Islamabad. The app is currently in the final stages of development and will be launched in February.
During the interview, Shallwani discussed the problems faced by Karachi and shared his vision for the country’s largest city.
