KARACHI: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PT) MNA Nusrat Wahid said Sunday that the announcement made by Prime Minister Imran Khan about Karachi package worth Rs 162 billion is a good sign for the development of the city, in which there are 10 transport, two for water-sewerage, 18 master plan and other several projects.
“These projects will help a lot to resolve the issues facing Karachi. The previous government only did the paperwork about infrastructure development as no physically and practically work was done. The funds went into the corrupt hands, whereas the PTI government, which has promised before the election about Karachi, has fulfilled the said promises,” she said in a statement.
She said that there were heaps of garbage in different parts of the city. The sewerage system is destroyed, the streets and roads are in shambles and there is a tremendous scarcity of water.
From the Karachi package, all the issues of transport, water & sewerage, and water crisis and basic amenities will be resolved. For the development of Karachi, in selected areas, construction of high-rise buildings will be allowed and the builders & developers will make progress through this program. Through plantation of trees, Karachi will be made a city of greeneries, for the conservation of clean water and preservation of plantations positive efforts, will be made.
