Governor of Sindh, Kamran Khan Tessori, took on Tuesday a firm attitude against Karachi’s notorious dumping Mafia, saying that if he gets authority over you Karachi for only a week, and a single dump-related accident occurs, he will resign.

By tackling a public collection in Hyderabad, Governor Kamran Tessori discussed various urgent questions and announced initiatives aimed at the city’s development.

He criticized the situation in Karachi and said, “The public has been misled, and now these dumpers are crushing our own children.”

Tessori also claimed that if the mayor of Karachi was placed under his supervision, the old roads of the city could immediately be restored.

The governor also suggested that Pakistan Tehreek-E-Insaf (PTI) should fully weave with the Muttahida Qaumi movement (MQM) to bring greater political stability in Sindh.

He reflected on IT education in Hyderabad and complained about the delay in completing courses. “We conducted that test here months ago, but five months have passed and the courses remain incomplete. If I reveal the real reason, all of Hyderabad will take the streets,” he noted, adding that he is exercising patience.

Tessori highlighted social welfare activities held at the Governor House in Karachi, including daily IFTAR -Mornings under Ramadan, where objects such as plot, motorcycles and Umrah tickets are distributed. He also shared that over 1 million ration bags and more than 12,000 laptops have been distributed so far, “without taking a single rupie.”

He thanked the people of Hyderabad for their warm welcome, called their hospitality “historically” and added, “If the police ever harass you unnecessarily, just tell them that the governor is your brother – it will raise your respect.”

When he talked about threatening challenges, Tessori warned that certain powers want Sindh’s people to remain weak so they can “take over.” “Half of the acquisition has already happened – hasn’t the municipal administration already been seized?” He asked.

He concluded his speech in calling on the people of Hyderabad to remain united and resilient and said, “There are harder times coming, but together we will meet them.”

Yesterday, a young couple, Abdul Qayum and his wife Zainab, expected their first child after Eidul Fitr, but a driver driving with his water bowser, ran over their motorcycle and killed the parents and their unborn child near Malir Halt Flyover in Model Colony.

The truck driver pulled the bike under his vehicle and killed Qayum on the spot. Zainab, lying in a blood pool, in his death, gave birth to a child who also died later.

Witnesses described the accident as terrible, with spectators who screamed in shock. A video clip appeared on social media and showed a passerby who tried to save the newborn life by rushing to a hospital.

This deadly crash brings the total number of fatal accidents in traffic accidents so far this year to 214. Heavy vehicles have demanded 68 lives for 83 days, 17 of which dumps collisions, 24 from trailer collisions, 14 from water tanker collisions, five from Mazda-Tuck collisions and eight from urban collisions.
