Governor Sindh Kamran Khan Tessori took a strong stand against Karachi’s notorious dumper mafia on Tuesday, stating that if he were given authority over DIG Karachi for just one week and a single dumper-related accident occurred, he would resign from his position.
Speaking at a public gathering in Hyderabad, Governor Tessori addressed various pressing issues and outlined initiatives aimed at the city’s development. He criticized the current situation in Karachi, stating, “The public has been misled, and now these dumpers are crushing our own children.”
Tessori further claimed that under his supervision, the Mayor of Karachi could restore the city’s old roads immediately. He also suggested that Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) should merge with the Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) to foster greater political stability in Sindh.
Reflecting on the delayed completion of IT education courses in Hyderabad, Tessori expressed frustration, saying, “We conducted IT tests here months ago, but five months have passed and the courses remain incomplete. If I reveal the real reason, the whole of Hyderabad will take to the streets,” adding that he was exercising patience.
Tessori also highlighted the social welfare activities being conducted at the Governor House in Karachi, such as daily Iftar dinners during Ramadan, where items like plots, motorbikes, and Umrah tickets are distributed. He shared that over 1 million ration bags and more than 12,000 laptops had been distributed so far, “without taking a single rupee.”
Expressing gratitude to the people of Hyderabad for their warm hospitality, he remarked, “If the police ever harass you unnecessarily, just tell them the Governor is your brother—it will elevate your respect.”
Speaking about the challenges ahead, Tessori warned that certain forces aimed to keep Sindh’s people weak to facilitate a takeover. “Half the takeover has already happened—hasn’t the municipal administration already been seized?” he asked.
He concluded his speech by urging the people of Hyderabad to stay united and resilient, saying, “Tougher times are coming, but together, we will face them.”
The speech came just a day after a tragic accident in Karachi, where a water bowser driver speeding near Malir Halt Flyover ran over a motorcycle carrying a young couple, Abdul Qayum and his wife Zainab, who were expecting their first child. The collision killed Qayum instantly, while Zainab, in her final moments, gave birth to a child who also died later. Witnesses described the accident as horrifying, with onlookers trying to help save the newborn. The crash brought the total number of traffic accident fatalities in the city this year to 214, with heavy vehicles contributing to 68 deaths, including 17 from dumper collisions.
