The recent rains in Karachi have played havoc with the lives of its citizens. The inefficiency of all the civic service agencies has been exposed. All the chaos was the result of only 88mm of rain.
In Mumbai last year a total of 944mm rain was recorded on July 26 in a few hours. It is frightening to imagine what would happen if Karachi was to receive that kind of rainfall. It is high time that the authorities come out of their slumber and start proper planning for the future. If it can happen in Mumbai, it can happen in Karachi.
