Welcoming the delegation to Karachi, Nasrin Jalil said that Pakhtuns are residing here in large numbers, and that they now belong to this city. She said that all those living here must own the city and participate in its development.

She informed the visitors that the World Economic Forum had included Karachi in the world’s 12 mega-cities, which was a matter of pride for the whole of Pakistan.
