Citizens Petition
We the citizens of Karachi have suffered immense misery, damage to health and property and disruption of our daily lives because of gross wastefulness and criminal negligence on the part of Karachi Port Trust a public sector organization of the Government of Pakistan.
1. KPT built a water fountain at a cost of Rs.225 million. The water fountain essentially a showpiece is an insult to the residents of a city whose large majority has no drinking water, no electricity, no medical care and no ambulance service. This fountain, suitably described as a 'monument to misery' having served the purpose of fooling the public now stands silent and inoperative in the middle of the sea.
2. KPT took over one year to build an underpass at Clifton at a cost of Rs.180 million. The underpass is so poorly designed that within hours of the first rain in Karachi, it was completely flooded and converted into a canal. This resulted in suspension of all traffic, complete disruption of the daily lives and damage to health and property of citizens. The underpass would now require many more months and many more millions for repair and rebuild.
We the citizens demand accountability of those who built and approved these projects. We want accountability on why precious state resources were misspent on irrelevant projects like the Rs.225 million water fountain and the ill designed Rs.180 million Clifton underpass.
A protest meeting is being held at Entrance of Clifton Underpass (coming from Teen Talwar) on Thursday 3rd August 06 at 4.00 pm to launch the signature campaign. Please bring suitable banners and placards. The petition will be converted into an appeal for suo moto action by Supreme Court. All citizens are requested to attend.
A group of concerned citizens.
