JI Chief Hafiz Naeem ur Rehman, while speaking on Eid-ul-Adha, said that citizens continued performing sacrifices despite severe civic issues and appreciated the collective qurbani arrangements at around 150 locations.
He criticized Mayor Karachi Murtaza Wahab over his statement that there is no water crisis in the city, saying that around 70% of Karachi is facing disrupted water supply and is forced to rely on water tankers. He added that several areas are also affected due to a power breakdown at Dhabeji on May 21, which impacted Water Line 5, and questioned why the Dhabeji pipeline is often affected during Eid days.
He further said that this situation repeats every year and alleged that authorities are not performing their duties properly, as Karachi continues to face severe water shortages, with even previously supplied areas now deprived of water.
He also alleged corruption in the Sindh Solid Waste Management Board, stating that despite a Rs 43 billion budget, the department has failed to ensure proper cleanliness and waste management across the city.
