00:00 I will say a few words on a topic that makes me feel ashamed to even talk about it.

00:05 People are dying of hunger. This is a very sad thing, not surprising.

00:09 It is unfortunate that this is not surprising. It is surprising in itself.

00:13 But it is a fact.

00:15 People are dying of inflation. It is a very sad thing, but not surprising.

00:19 This is surprising that it is not surprising.

00:22 But this is so surprising, so shameful that

00:25 Karachi is the biggest city in the world.

00:30 It is the biggest city in Pakistan. It is called the metropolis.

00:33 The sea coast, the port, etc.

00:36 And not one, not two, but in the last two months,

00:40 more than five children have fallen and died due to the lack of a shelter in the gutter.

00:48 Today, in another area of Karachi, another mother took out the dead body of her four-year-old daughter from the gutter.

01:00 Because there are no shelters in the gutter.

01:02 I feel ashamed to even talk about it.

01:04 It is so shameful to say that children are dying because there are no shelters in the gutter.

01:09 And not one incident happened, not two, not three.

01:13 Four or five incidents have happened in two months. More than 60 incidents have happened this year.

01:18 In a developed country, I am sorry, I am saying sentences.

01:21 If so many animals die by falling into the gutter, then the action should be taken.

01:25 If so many animals die, then.

01:27 Here, human children are dying and dying.

01:29 See the clip of our program a few days ago.

01:32 We had joined hands and told Mr. Murshidabad and everyone that

01:35 Brother, the anger of God is dying in this city. Save children from falling into the gutter.

01:39 See the clip of our program 8-10 days ago.

01:43 Nothing happened. Today another child died.

01:45 Tomorrow another child will die. God forbid.

01:47 I don't know when it will affect someone.

01:50 When something happens, then it will affect someone.

01:52 See the clip of our program a few days ago.

01:54 My hands are joined.

01:56 The people of this city are suffering from abuse, bullets, and all this.

02:01 And they are still suffering in some way.

02:03 For God's sake, if nothing else is done, then put a cover on the gutters.

02:06 People's children are dying by falling into the gutters.

02:09 One has died and one has died yesterday in the Mehman Ghat.

02:12 For God's sake, this is my painful appeal to Mr. Murshidabad.

02:16 This is an emergency order that the gutter cover should not be opened in this city.

02:22 Two children have fallen and died.

02:24 I could not see the full footage when a man pulled out a child from the gutter.

02:28 By God, if you see that footage, a poor child was walking and fell into the gutter.

02:32 Then after a while, a man heard the child's voice and saw that the child had died.

02:38 I am sorry, I am saying that this child could have been anyone's.

02:42 I mean, have I written it somewhere?

02:45 I am not telling you, Mr. Murshidabad, any ruler, that his child could not have been his.

02:49 So for God's sake, for God's sake, if you say that the rest of the work will have to be done,

02:53 then put a cover on the gutter.

02:55 People of Karachi, do not fall into the gutter and die.

02:57 At least die with respect.

02:58 If you do this favor, I will be very grateful to you.

03:02 I wish these children had not died.

03:04 If someone had fallen into the gutter, he would have died with shame.

03:07 I wish this had happened.

03:09 This was the program on August 17th.

03:11 Today, on August 31st, another child died.

03:13 I think if there are 50-100 more, then maybe there will be some atmosphere.

03:16 Then maybe some favor will be done.

03:18 Then some mercy will come.

03:20 But until then, I appeal to the people of this uninherited city,

03:24 that you take care of your children, because the rulers do not have to take care.

03:28 They have other priorities.

03:30 I am incapable of understanding.

03:32 If there is any problem, then you say,

03:34 "Look, it cannot be solved overnight.

03:36 Reforms are needed for this."

03:37 Oh, brother, what reform is needed for this?

03:39 Okay, you need a reform for the covers of the gutter.

03:41 So do one favor for God.

03:43 Do it with mercy.

03:44 The main holes that are open, put a bar around them for now.

03:47 Can this work be done in 5-10 days or not?

03:49 I mean, is there any reform for this?

03:51 I mean, what to do for this?

03:52 I mean, it is such a shameful thing that a current affairs show is starting in Pakistan

03:56 with the demand that, "Hey, put a cover on the gutter.

03:58 Our children are dying."

04:00 I don't know, maybe 500 more children will die.

04:02 Then someone will feel ashamed.

04:03 Then maybe there will be news that someone died of shame.

04:05 But until then, the people of Karachi should take care of themselves.

04:07 The government cannot support you in this regard either.

04:10 Let's come to the next topic.

04:11 But I will also ask our two respected guests to join in the voice.

04:15 I don't know, or express their opinion.

04:17 Saira Bano is with us.

04:18 She is a senior leader of the Grand Democratic Alliance.

04:21 Shehzad Azhar Shahid Awan is with us.

04:23 Central Circuit Information, Istikam, Pakistan Party.

04:26 Saira Sahiba, I wanted to come to my topic, but I need a few minutes before I come to my topic.

04:33 So that I can adjust myself.

04:34 You tell me, what do you want to say?

04:36 I live in Karachi and my heart aches.

04:39 And I say that this is a senior leader of the People's Party, Shehzad Azhar Sahiba.

04:43 When I see him, I still have that pain in my eyes.

04:46 I can see that pain in his eyes.

04:51 That this has happened to him.

04:53 So I say that this has not happened since then.

04:56 Since when have these drains been open?

04:59 You have heard about the children, how many bikes have fallen, how many cars are entering.

05:03 In the beginning, you said a lot in your program.

05:06 I said that I apologize.

05:08 Or this should not happen.

05:09 If this is the case, then that is not.

05:10 So I am sorry.

05:11 When there are a lot of shutters, then there will be no shutters on the gutter.

05:16 With these shutters, there will be no shutters here.

05:19 Mr. Firdaus, I am working for you.

05:24 I personally have a colleague who works in this institution, in ARY.

05:28 Now, God forbid, he is not watching this program.

05:30 He had an incident with his son two months ago.

05:33 He works in this building, which I am talking about.

05:35 He still has hope.

05:37 And God forbid, his hope is true.

05:39 He still has hope that his son is alive.

05:41 Because he has not found anything yet.

05:43 So he still has hope.

05:44 This is the extent of cruelty that people lose their children because of the lack of shutters.

05:48 Can there be a greater cruelty than this?

05:51 In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

05:55 Wasim, this is an extremely sensitive and touching story that you are discussing.

06:03 And you have highlighted it before.

06:05 It indicates what our priorities are.

06:09 In those priorities, the human lives, especially these innocent flowers and buds,

06:17 instead of giving them quality life and basic fundamental rights,

06:22 these small demands of their parents,

06:27 whose responsibility, you know, after becoming the mayor of Karachi,

06:33 after becoming the provincial government,

06:36 after becoming the mayor of Karachi,

06:38 the structure of the government,

06:40 the land of Karachi,

06:42 the settlements of Karachi,

06:44 their drainage, sewerage,

06:46 and overall, their basic needs and needs,

06:51 we have seen their massacre many times with our own eyes.

06:55 And the sad thing is that the city has become an economic city.

07:01 And where the wheel of the economy of Pakistan runs,

07:05 the children of the people living there are suffocating.

07:11 So this is a moment of worry.

07:13 And certainly, the thinking of the people of Karachi,

07:17 their vision,

07:19 and their own broad mind,

07:22 I can see that, God willing,

07:24 they will get rid of this gutter-minded politics.

07:30 And this city will also get freedom.

07:33 And this city will also be free from those gutters,

07:38 whose greediness is being used to get their rights.

07:43 But no one is listening.

07:45 And I want to say this to your audience,

07:49 that Murtaza Wahab, you are a young, dynamic, energetic face of the party.

07:56 So we expected a change from you.

08:00 You will break the status quo,

08:03 and you will start a new era of public service,

08:07 away from traditional politics.

08:11 But after listening to this story today,

08:14 you will also have nothing to say except for shame.

08:18 Karachi is like a police station.

08:21 The dead bodies are lying around,

08:23 and the police are fighting at the police station,

08:25 and if we start arguing about this,

08:27 then people will say that this is a police station,

08:29 and if you don't have the power, then you can't do anything.
