JI Ramps Up Karachi Campaign With Push to Scrap E‑Challan System

The Sindh government rejects the accusations as propaganda.

Overview

  • At the inauguration of the Hyderi Model Market in North Nazimabad, JI chief Hafiz Naeem ur Rehman accused the PPP-led Sindh government of neglect, corruption and land grabbing.
  • Hafiz Naeem labeled Karachi’s newly launched e‑challan regime a revenue "business venture" and said JI will petition the chief minister to withdraw it.
  • He pointed to broken roads, delayed Red and Orange Line BRT works, poor waste collection and stalled devolution of powers to towns as evidence of misgovernance.
  • JI leaders reiterated claims of electoral manipulation through favorable delimitations and the use of Form 47, alleging the current mayor was installed through rigging.
  • Sindh government spokesperson Sadia Javed dismissed the allegations as lies, criticized JI town chairmen and maintained Karachi is progressing, with no change to the e‑challan policy announced.
