PM Imran Khan has said the federal government is fully aware of water, transport, waste management and other issues being faced by the residents of Karachi.
He said Karachi is the economic hub of Pakistan, but it is unfortunate that the people and issues of the metropolitan were ignored in the past. “The poor economic condition of Sindh is a result of corruption.”
“Local government system will be helpful in the resolution of Karachi’s problems,” said the premier.
PM Imran Khan directed federal ministers to intensify their interactions with lawmakers hailing from Karachi.
Planning Minister Khusro Bakhtiyar briefed members of the Sindh Assembly about the development projects being completed and to be accomplished by the federal government.
