KARACHI: Jamaat-e-Islami (JI) Karachi emir Monem Zafar on Monday called for a substantial increase in development funds for Karachi, proposing a Rs500 billion allocation for the city's development projects and a monthly budget of Rs2.5 million for each union council.
Addressing a press conference at the JI Karachi headquarters, Idara Noor-e-Haq, Zafar emphasised the need to devolve financial and administrative powers to the local government in line with the 18th Constitutional Amendment, introduced by the Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP).
He criticised the PPP regime for its handling of the education sector in Sindh, highlighting a rapid decline in educational standards despite significant funding. Zafar attributed this downturn to corruption, nepotism, and incompetence within the government.
