Currently target killing is the biggest problem of Karachi. People are scare of leaving their houses and going to public places in fear that they will even be able to come back safely or not. Now for months the conditions are same and getting worse day by day, government which was supposed to take some solid measures to put an end to such a violence seems to come up with excuses every now and then.

I am safe to say that the power production capabilities of country decreased over the last years instead of increasing.

The current requirement varies around the 16,662 megawatts. Which means that the demand and supply gap is still 5000 megawatts. Either its non functional power plants or reasons are no matter what, the thing is that […]
