I was really shocked to see the way some people celebrated the Independence Day, which is of immense importance because it was a dream come true sixty years ago. However, it is regretted that many people took advantage of the liberty given to them by throwing away all canons of decency on this great occasion.
We were more depressed to see the role of the City government that gave full freedom to all to celebrate the day, without laying down any code of ethics. Through your esteemed newspaper I want to ask the City Government that did we get this freedom to make the lives of our own people miserable?
It has been 60 years and we have not learnt a dignified way to celebrate this happy occasion, a way which would determine our identity and national character. Is this our national character to harm and tease others by riding bikes without silencers, playing music on loudspeakers, causing traffic jams without caring for those who are not well.
I want to sternly condemn this sort of indiscipline. On this day the City Government seemed to have completely failed to control the 'Destroyers' of peace of mind of Karachiites who turned the day of happiness into a miserable day. A genuine leader is the person who makes the people to follow him willingly. It is your duty to set an example.
I want to request the City Government to take strict action against those who make the city of Quaid a city of miscreants. Don't be reluctant, teach them a lesson so that they would not dare to do such things again. I would like to add that economic development alone does not mean construction of tall buildings, concrete roads and flyovers. Alongside we need to prepare our youngsters for future.
