Good luck to Mr Shallwani. The general public should be informed as where Mr Shallwani would be sitting whether in City Administrator's Office, or at Commissioner Office, as both the offices are meant for public dealing, otherwise, Karachiites would be shuttling every now and then between City Administrator's Office and the Commissioner's Office. If he is sitting at one particular office in Karachi this should be announced for convenience of general public.
