KARACHI: Muttahida Qaumi Movement Pakistan (MQM-P) leader and Mayor Waseem Akhtar demanded once again to declare Karachi ‘a separate province’, media reported on Sunday. While talking to journalists, Waseem Akhtar expressed his views that the Constitution allows creation of new province, however, public opinion should be taken by organising a referendum. The mayor censured the Sindh government, saying that the worse administrative situation of Malir and Korangi should be considered as a proof against the provincial authorities after converting it into districts.
He alleged that the Sindh government has taken hold of the revenue-generating departments by including institutions into newly-created Keamari district. He added that districts are being created on political basis in Karachi.
