Family Of 12-Year-Old Fahad Who Died In Karachi Rains Demands No Other Child Suffers Same, Tragic Fate!

The monsoon in Pakistan is currently in its resting stage but it is said to be the calm before the actual shake. Rains in Sindh have always been a debatable topic as every year, while the whole country faces extreme showers, clouds in Sindh show no positive sign. Every monsoon season, rains open up the pandora box of the carelessness of the provincial government which results in massive devastation. Like every year, this time too, nobody paid any heed to open electricity units which resulted in brutal deaths of several citizens.

Heavy rainfalls predicted from Friday to Monday in Sindh!

According to the Pakistan Meteorological Department (PMD), extremely heavy rains will again start from Friday to Monday in Karachi. The Met Office has issued a warning and asked the citizens to stay alert and take precautionary measures during the rains. Karachites are now just hoping that these rains serve as ‘rehmat’ instead of becoming ‘zehmat’ like always. Even after Met’s official statement, K-Electric hasn’t paid any heed to it and no proper maintenance has started.
