THE Sindh government has launched the Karachi Neighbourhood Improvement Project (KNIP) with the help of the World Bank to restore the lost glory of the city.
The project is intended to beautify Saddar’s downtown area and improve traffic flow. Two of the reasons for the downfall of this once posh locality are encroachments, and the transport mafia.
Besides, there is air pollution because of traffic chaos in the area.
The Sindh chief minister and authorities concerned should take strict action against encroachments and the transport mafia or else KNIP will prove another failure.
