KARACHI: On April 26 during a rally at Kakri Ground, the Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) co-chairperson, Asif Ali Zardari, had promised the people of Lyari that the water crisis in the district would be resolved within three months. The deadline passed a few days ago; the promise was broken once again, local media sources claimed.

During his public address to the jiyalas, Zardari had instructed Sindh chief minister Syed Qaim Ali Shah, who was standing beside him, to resolve one of the biggest issues of the residents within three months.

The same week, Shah conducted a meeting at the CM House and directed officials to take immediate measures. Lyari, on the other hand, faced an acute shortage hardly a week after the jalsa instead of the promised smooth supply.
