Karachi Mayor Barrister Murtaza Wahab has ordered city officials to finish all ongoing development work before Eid, warning staff that delays will not be tolerated.
He issued the instructions during an early visit to inspect multiple projects, including road carpeting in the Old City area and renovation work on Jahangir Road, Hidayatullah Road, and Shahrah-e-Faisal.
Calling Jahangir Road a key route linking major city arteries, the mayor directed authorities to speed up construction. He said the administration is trying to open at least one track of the road before the Eid holidays to reduce inconvenience for commuters.
Wahab also told municipal teams to focus on delivery rather than presentations.
“I don’t want briefings anymore,” he said, adding that with Ramazan underway, people should see facilities improved ahead of Eid.
He said the upgrades in the Old City would help improve traffic movement across Karachi, and instructed that construction standards must be maintained. The mayor also ordered that contractor payments should only be released after proper inspection and verification.
He assured citizens that the ongoing work would lead to noticeable infrastructure improvements after a short period of disruption.

What about University Road? Short period of disruption? Is 4 years a short period? Utter incompetence and absence of empathy. Classical demonstration of elitist mindset and disconnect from society.
Lots of big talk but little action. Sadly typical of the Sindh Government in making promises that they know they can’t keep.
Pathetic Sind Government and pathetic City administration and its mayor.
Road from Pahalwan Goth to Safoora baldy needs to be repaired
Yeh her jagah bricks laga laga ke gari or hadiyon ki ammi kerdi hai. Yeh konsa “sasta or tikayu” alternative nikala hai road carpeting ka?!
Major Sahab,Lyari ka pora area gas line ka kam mukamaal howa tha tab sa dobara road nahi bana Lyari main
This Mayor and PPP is simply a Joke for Karachi.
They are just busy in minting money 💰
They have no fear of ALLAH and feel that they dont have to standbin front of Allah S.W.
The Mayor of Karachi should know that the main road from Baba Mor, North Karachi Sector 2, is in an extremely bad condition. He should personally visit the area or at least, depute his staff to see and give a factual report. The main road from NK Chowrangi North Karachi towards Baba Mor also needs immediate repairs
