Karachi News Updates

[hasn2009]

PPP came in to power to make Larkana look like Karachi, but they couldn't, so now they are trying to make Karachi look like Larkana, and they have been quite successful so far.

 

[Areesh]

Man its sad to see Karachi’s current situation. Even 2nd tier cities in Punjab ( Gujranwala, Sialkot, Faislabad ) have better living conditions

2nd tier?

Even f*cking Mogadishu is better than Karachi in terms of governance and infrastructure

Just because Karachiites aren't murdering people daily like those clowns in KPK or their women aren't blowing themselves to piece like jokers of Balochistan, state of Pakistan has taken people of Karachi completely for granted

 

[krash]

Why tf are you taking it personally? Are you in charge of the f'ing budget that you need to provide clarification that's not required? Who died and made you spokesman for the govt?

You present false claims targeting other Pakistanis and then demand to know why they are being countered? Isn't that something.

There was no clarification. Clearly pointed out your false claims born of worthless ethno-regional politics meant to placate your insecurities while blaming and spitting venom against other Pakistanis. More importantly, pointed out your shameless play on a child's death to further your vile ethnic/regional politics. Most decent people would take offense to that.

Fact is that Karachi is treated like sh!t - only extracting and giving pittance in return. This is admittedly an emotional response, and it is because people like you miss the forest for the trees - the pleas of the inhabitants of Karachi are not heard and strawman arguments are made in place.

Here is the reality - most Karachiites will agree:
1. As much as Sindhis like to claim Karachi was 'given to them 3000 years ago,' the Sindhi decision makers (i.e. PPP) don't care about its development, and they funnel the extracted wealth from Karachi to their personal fiefdoms. The Sindhis that care are to timid and weak to make a difference
2. Other ethnicities, including Muhajirs, are politically irrelevant, as devolution of power has not happened.
3. Administrative and development control for Karachi needs to be separated from Govt. of Sindh as they've not been able to do their job

Disregarding the uneducated opinions and claims about the system of governance and taxation in the country, this has nothing to do with my post.

The rest of Pakistan is not beholden to your emotional responses, spitting lies and uneducated claims blaming them. You can take them elsewhere.

It is that high based purely on tax revenue collected. No one pays taxes in Lahore Pindi and Islamabad.

Just the Lalookhait market pays more tax than all retailers in above three cities combined.

Another fabricated claim. Islamabad pays much higher income tax per capita than Karachi or any other region of the country. You and your lot have been purposefully brought up on an illiterate understanding of the taxation system to fuel support for a now defunct ethno-nationalistic criminal gang masquerading as a political party.

Federal gov't AKA the wardi mafia is most definitely responsible for undemocratically imposing the highly corrupt unpopular scourge of PPP on Karachi and wider Sindh.

As opposed to the rest of the country enjoying free and fair elections.

PPP has no base of support in Sindh let alone Karachi. Demographically speaking Sindhis are only 40% of the population in Sindh but the Daku Waderays of PPP are always in power courtesy wardi mafia jamadars.

What is your source? Did Chacha Saleem conduct one of his censuses again? As per the latest government census, Sindhis constitute 62% of the province's population.

 

[SaadH]

Karachi is neither developed or being built, its conditions are worse then faisalabad or sialkot let alone Lahore. but I am sure if they keep voting PPP and MQM this change in another 100 years.

Oh bhaee no one votes for PPP or MQM, it's only fauji guns that keep getting them "elected"...

Yes same chaudhary chacha Saleem who conducted census for the wardi wadera mafia and declared Karachi's population to be only slightly higher than Lahore's when it's easily double

Bro, both MQM and PPP utterly lost in Karachi.
Long live GHQ Election forgery.
PPP did not even win in Sindh. It is police, GHQ, EC, to the rescue.

Imagine, army fuc* the hell out of MQM in 2016 operation. Dead bodies were dumped at Hawks bay, and they brought again MQM in assemblies ( though a pliant and tout brand).

That was a crime against humanity in essence.
This way they can kill Karachi without shedding blood and then appear Innocent.

1. You're the one bringing in 'worthless ethno-regional politics'
2. No insecurities here - just want Karachi cleaned-up and developed. You're just projecting your own victim complex on to others. The guy was simply lamenting why is Karachi neglected, though it is an economic powerhouse - you decided to take it as an affront to punjabis for some reason.
3. Uneducated opinions? Just like you did before?
4. Nope - tumhari jageer nahi hai daggay.
