Karachi Mayor warns of action against road defacers

The newly elected Mayor of Karachi, Murtaza Wahab, on Monday said that action will be taken against road defacers who put up banners and advertisements blocking the tidiness and beauty of the area.

Murtaza Wahab pointed out that the posters culture, the ever popular ‘Mehboob apk Kadmoo may’ and such other ads written on the walls destroy the clean view, making the area look displeasing. He shared his thoughts during the foundation ceremony of beautification and restoration project of Shahrah-e-Faisal.

Wahab asserted that the condition of Shahrah-e-Faisal was very bad until a few years ago and so the Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) government decided to improve the drainage with new drains installed at different places, rain water did not accumulate on road in the recent spells.

Karachi Mayor said the beautification and improvement project of Shahrah-e-Faisal will cost about Rs20 crore and will be completed in one year.
“You won’t find the flag of any political party on the Shahrah-e-Faisal,” he said and further warned of action against road defacers.
