KARACHI: Amir Jamaat-e-Islami Karachi Hafiz Naeem-ur-Rehman has said that we will tell the people of Karachi how K-Electric has held the people of the city hostage.
While talking to the media in the City Court, he said that the public referendum of Jamaat-e-Islami against the illegal bills of K Electric is going on in full swing, in which the lawyers of Karachi Bar and City Court also participated. Hafiz Naeemur Rahman said that the issue of K Electric is for 3 crore people of the entire city. Illegal charges are being levied in the form of overcharges and fuel adjustments.
Hafiz Naeemur Rahman said that the city has got relief from the court decision, Jamaat-e-Islami will continue its struggle until the end of the tax. He said that due to fuel adjustment, it was recovered in June and July, while K Electric is also in default of SSGC worth 153 billion. K Electric will pay 53 billion in September for RLNG. The money was collected from the citizens of Karachi in July and August and the debris of line losses and damaged power plant has also been dumped on the people.
Amir Jamaat-e-Islami said that tomorrow is the last day of the referendum. We will tell the people how K Electric has taken the people hostage. Lawyers community should join our cases and represent the public. He said that the government of People’s Party is worried. The provincial and federal governments are not ready to give anything to Karachi. Motor vehicle tax and infrastructure tax were collected from the citizens of Karachi, Karachi did not get anything from this tax.
He said that KMC mafia is also involved with K Electric mafia. Murtaza Wahab tell what his party gave to the city. If you ask them about Jahangir Road, they get angry. Giving nothing to the city and taxing tax on tax. During the reign of Nimatullah Khan, construction works were done without any tax. Murtaza Wahab tell me why the money did not go to MC’s account. PPP is ruling Sindh for the last 15 years. Instead of development, the city of Karachi has become a garbage dump.
