The Sindh Government conducted an operation and from 6th position, we came to 128th.
10,000 people come to this city every day, this city provides employment, education, and health to all and will continue to provide them. Karachi is not abandoned, we need to tell people that good things happen here. If we want to move forward, we have to reach out to each other and move forward. The coming time will be good for our province and for our people
While IG Sindh Ghulam Nabi Memon said that the police is a part of this society, there is no peace in Karachi, it is not like that. We have asked the people of Karachi to install CCTV cameras as it will reduce the crime rate, and the ratio has decreased. The Sindh Government has given funds to the police, and it is in front of everyone. The suggestion I sent to the Sindh government in 9 months was approved by the Chief Minister of Sindh. Karachi is at 128 on the list of peace, crime is higher in Chicago and Paris, peace is being disturbed under a conspiracy. Everywhere you go in the world, the crime rate is high. You can go to eat at night, go to the market, there is liveliness, and it means that there is peace in Karachi, doesn’t target the police like this. Sindh Government and Police are facing four problems, we have to end terrorism. The government provided us out-of-budget aid, and the Sindh Government gave us rupees One Million budget. We are recruiting police on a merit basis. We have 10 to 12 trainees and we pay for their food from our own pocket.
Brigadier (R) Haris Nawaz said that only if there is peace in Karachi, success will come in Karachi, the economy will improve and the entire society will have to help the police. Karachi needs to be made a smart city, cameras are much needed to catch terrorists and criminals. Haji Mohammad Rafiq Pardesi said that Karachi is a city of peace and our police is doing a very good job. PSL happens because of Sindh Police. This nation is ready to die in the name of Pakistan. Unity Foods CEO Farrukh Amin said that Karachi is a peace-loving city, but there are shortcomings and they are being removed.
Thanks to the Sindh Police, they have maintained peace in Karachi. Compared to the last ten years, there is peace in Karachi today.
