Transport Issues In Karachi

Transport problem in Karachi
Karachi is the center of exchange and monetary exercises. In past, it was viewed as the city of light as it was splendid and sparkling. The streets were washed consistently at night and the light post were there to light every spot. This all appears to be excessively intriguing and a fantasy at present, for today’s Karachi is the inverse of what we knew about it from our guardians. The Karachi we discover today is loaded with problems.
Transport problem is one of the most serious problems of this city. Buses are the main means of transport in this city. But they are not in position to meet the need of the people. Most of the buses are not in good condition. The buses are generally over loaded. Karachi city is also faced with the traffic problems. A large number of vehicles run on the roads of this city. Generally our people do not observe the traffic rules. Careless driving, overtaking and driving on the wrong side are very common in Karachi. As a result road accidents are very common in Karachi. The irresponsible traffic police is also responsible for this.
There are also water, electricity and housing problems. These problems still remain unsolved. Karachites are facing difficulties and hardships. Thus, Karachi is rightly called a city of problems. When one problem is solved many others crop up to take its place. These problems need an immediate attention of the authorities concerned. I am requesting they take care of these problems.
