Sindh Chief Minister Murad Ali Shah chaired a meeting to discuss cleanliness situation in Karachi on Monday, where he demanded that the city be cleaned up in the next 8-10 days.

CM Murad once again gave an ultimatum to city authorities to completely clean up Karachi within the stipulated time period and said he will turn his attention to the rest of Sindh next.

He also said he wanted Sea View area in Karachi to be completely cleaned up as well. 

CM Murad, who has vowed to make Karachi clean again ever since he assumed office, said he realized ridding Karachi of garbage dumps would take time and that he had issued new goals and instructions to relevant authorities to clean up the city in the next 10 days. 

The meeting, held at Sindh Secretariat, was attended by Minister for Local Government Jam Khan Shoro, Secretary Local Government, Commissioner Karachi, Administrator KMC, DMCs, District Council representatives, MD Water Board and other officials.

Talking to the media after the meeting, Sindh CM said that law and order situation in Karachi would further improve. He also dismissed accounts of 'child kidnappings' in the city as mere rumours.

He further said that no criminals, regardless of their political affiliation, would be allowed to escape.

CM Murad also met with Speaker Sindh Assembly after the meeting.

Earlier this month Murad Ali Shah had chaired a meeting for cleanliness in Karachi where he had said that the Sindh government was constantly being criticised for the garbage dumps which ply the streets.

“I will not allow garbage to be dumped on any ground,” he had said.
