Karachi, the biggest metropolitan, with the highest population. It has one of the busiest seaports. It’s the premier Industrial and Financial hub. According to Wikipedia it contributes to 20% of total GDP. So ideally it should have been the governments’ first priority towards its urban development. But NO!! In our country where politicians are only here to fill their personal bank accounts. They have Zero concern for any structural development in one of the biggest cities of our country. In just a single monsoon spell the whole city has turned into venice. No Government official is there to claim the responsibility. No Provincial or Central Government is ready to take charge. WHY????
A Potpourri of My Thoughts
Just like a colorful potpourri this page has colorful and not so colorful rantings of a mother of three princesses. As a mother I have to don the cap of a teacher, friend, playmate, cook, maid, etc and etc. With so many role changes within a day, my mind is whirring constantly up and down like a roller coaster. At the end of the day pouring out my thoughts and ideas on this blog is a relaxing and unwinding activity.

مدتوں سے پنپتی سازش نے ڈبویا
کہنے کو میرے شہر کو بارش نے ڈبویا
