Bagh Ibne Qasim Park, was once one of the most beautiful parts of the city. It was encroached by different qabza mafias, MQM and Pres. Musharraf got them removed and reconstructed with some restoration on the park. It was inaugurated with much fanfare in 2006/7. Then the worlds most dangerous political force called Peoples Party was forced onto the city of KArachi and they decided to destroy it. The best of Peoples PArty era off course is the water-borne diseases, people dying of heat, new kind of viruses introduced like Chikan Gunia and Niagleria in the KArachi's water supply.
Most of the pictures of Bagh Ibn e Qasim on the net are of initial era from 2007-2009, like this one
This is how it looks now,don't have the pictures of the aquarium whihc is in worse condition:
This is the beauty of jamhuriat, People are celebrating this huge FAVOUR by Peoples Party for removing it from their clutches after 9 years and giving it to a private qabza.
Bahria Town was being blamed for some of the pollution in the area due to the building of the tower and was asked to take care of it by residents, for which they jumped in and acquired some good piece of land.
How Karachi is suffering after 2007, is something no one can calculate. Even cities like Multan are in a better condition, all thanx to jamhuriat
