Karachi rain: Administrator comes up with bizarre justification

KARACHI: Although, the incumbent Pakistan People’s Party government was at the helm of affairs over the last five years, Karachi Administrator Saqib Soomro came up with a bizarre logic to justify authorities’ failure saying that Karachi would also remain waterlogged for four days after rains during the stint of previous government.

Talking to media on Sunday morning, he said that staff of the city government was busy in rescue work in the city and their top priority was to shift the affected people to safe places.

Soomro said that he was also accompanying his workers since he took charge of his office.
