TV host Tabish Hashmi expressed his deep affection for Karachi while hosting a program alongside the city’s Mayor, Murtaza Wahab, admitting that his emotions surfaced during the discussion.

Hashmi highlighted persistent issues such as broken roads, unmanaged garbage, and overpopulation, emphasizing that a true understanding of Karachi comes from witnessing life beyond its affluent neighborhoods. He stressed that the city’s problems are deeply rooted and require long-term, sustainable solutions rather than short-term fixes or assigning immediate blame. His comments reflected both concern for Karachi’s residents and a call for thoughtful, strategic approaches to addressing the urban challenges faced by the metropolis.
