One journalist wrote:

“The Shehbaz govt wont say a word on Karachi as its survival depends on the support of PPP, MQM and those running DHA—-the ‘real state’ within real estate. Bahria is holy cow for all since it is a national benefactor. So as the city flaps in filth and misfortune all stay quiet.”

To which another user responded: “Only Imran Khan did well for Karachi.”

Another user spoke of Lahore potentially facing the same problems:

“btw, Lahore’s flood resilience has gotten progressively weaker over the years too and we are not far off from the time when Pakistan’s second-biggest city will run into the same problems that we’re seeing right now in Karachi.”
