KARACHI: Sindh Governor Imran Ismail has said that the Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) and the Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) have their own ways of looking at things that may keep projects in Karachi moving ahead.
He was speaking at the ‘Safe Karachi’ conference organised by the Corporate Pakistan Group at a local hotel on Sunday to create awareness about the challenges faced by Karachi and focus on the key problems faced by the city’s administration, residents, service providers and businesses.
“A Karachi I grew up in was a clean and vibrant city. It was a different city. People used to come from all over the county to see Karachi. Then we also saw Karachi nose diving. There were thefts happening here, murders happening here. The lawlessness saw the departure of industry from here. Big business houses also left Karachi,” the governor said.
