Sir: The roads of Karachi are in terrible conditions as these are not repaired since long. The potholes on the roads are a major cause of concern. Not only do these holes slow down the traffic but also cause several accidents and damages of vehicles. Traffic flow always slow and caused traffic several hour traffic jam and moreover, during monsoons, these potholes become mosquitoes’ hatchery. We have tried to bring this problem to the notice of the concerned authorities in the past too. However, all our efforts have gone in vain so far. We hope that the authorities will take some concrete action this time. HAMZA Karachi
