City is set on fire.


The current situation of Pakistan is not hidden from anyone. Punjab and Sindh are under the burden of scarcity. On the other hand Khyber pakhtunkhuan is still facing the outcomes of drone attacks. They don’t even have enough time to get settled from last attack that they are being attacked again. Balochistan is no more the part of us. Our Balochi brothers, especially the current generation of Balochistan, do not even recognize us as their neighbors.
let’s talk about Karachi now. The city of light is being transformed accurately into the city of Blood. The current anarchy in the city makes us ambiguous about the meaning of peace which used to be the part of Karachi in past. Karachi has seen someone, saying goodbye to his family in the morning as if he would not see them again. Karachi has seen a guy being killed brutally by rangers. It has also seen him bagging at the name of God for the life but not even the footage maker did anything. Karachi has seen the mothers of many crying for their sons when its just their dead bodies which come back home.  Not even the holy month of peace, the reconciliation between political parties and imposition of comissionary system have made a big difference. Karachi’s current situation is not different from Kashmir or gaza where people are being burnt alive and nobody is there to answer them. It is being proved from last night's incident when mini bus full of passengers was set on fire and which took the lives of many. It is difficult to conclude now whether mischief monkers are in the hands of Karachi or Karachi is in their hands. It is also difficult to say that whether fire is in the city or city is set on the fire. However; the karachities are struggling and would be struggling till their last breathe.

  2. i agree !So much killings all around, so much fear of being a victim of such horrible killings. What has happened to our faith and why v r killing our brothers? Just no regard of human values, whether it be women or children, all r being victimized equally. Ahhh ... Once i heard that Karachi is a city of lights! Is it really? Or it was actually many ambulances moving. together yyr
