They said that Karachi was passing through the worst period of its history never seen it in such a miserable condition where sanitation, pathetic infrastructure, transportation and now law and order situation have reached to the level of ever worst disorder.
The roads of entire Karachi and the condition of site areas of town associations are completely in miserable condition despite the fact that these Town Associations are known economic sites contributing in economic activities and providing job opportunities to the masses, UBG added.
