No one is asking them to fund it as well. Federal govt agreed to pay 50% which they refused. Punjab govt is getting 0 from the federal govt for orange line and instead used investors from abroad (china). No one was against the 18th ammendment which PPP brought themselves. I feel sorry for karachiites and want to see federal govt supporting them on this but it would be injustice to others. How i wish karachi was separated from sindh and made a province or a special zone.

Can anyone believe that this city provides 70% to national exchequer and is home to more than 22 Million people.
The whole city looks like a huge slum from pics.

The Sindh govt says 738 billion is peanuts.
The Solution is to give Karachi a special status (like that of Islamabad or FATA) where the funds flow in directly from the capital.
Second solution is to revert back the 18th amendment as it was there were some grey areas deliberately put by ppp like the roles of tax collection, we dont know who will collect tax and what will be fedrals role.So once we get that reverted we withold any new amendments related to devolution until a solid framework is there.
Third solution is to carve out a province out of Sindh in such a way that we have some parts of karachi given to sindhis and the other to the NonSindhis. But we dont want to go there, this shoudl be a last resort.
The political impasse can only break when either one PPP or MQM vanishes which is highly unlikely in near future as PTI/alternates have a long way to go.
