Sindh’s Labor Minister, Saeed Ghani, has complained that Karachi residents over-exaggerate their problems by 100 times.
He also remarked that it is the only city where its citizens deliberately block sewerage lines, rupture water connections, and damage street lights.
Furthermore, the Labor Minister claimed to have evidence to back up his assertion. However, he did not mention taking action against anyone engaging in such activities.
Separately, Karachi Police apprehended a gang involved in supplying fake currency notes in the markets of the country’s financial capital.
Police officers from Khokrapar Police Station carried out the raid and recovered Rs. 118,000 fake currency notes from their possession.
Earlier a video received strong backlash in which an officer of Karachi Police was seen assaulting a bus driver. The video further showed a policeman dragging the bus driver in front of a crowd while he was pleading for mercy.
Consequently, Additional Inspector General (AIG) Karachi, Javed Alam Odho, took notice of the incident and called for an investigation of the matter. He added that the delinquent policeman will face disciplinary action after an inquiry into his misconduct.
The minister would prefer that Karachi’s residents started acting like Lahoris, praising the “greenery” of Lahore and pretend that they live in a first world country, even when it’s the most polluted city in the world. Fortunately, even Lahore’s residents have become more reasonable and although, very subtly, have started to point out some of their problems on social media. Living in a fool’s paradise is common for the party to which he belongs. They think Sindh is the most developed, “liberal” and educated part of the entire Central Asian land mass to which we belong. We, Pakistanis can’t pretend we don’t have problems like the South Asians (Indians) just because our administration doesn’t wish to resolve them. After this comical statement, it’s important that people from Karachi share even more issues, as little as a single wrapper on the street corner that they probably threw themselves.
