Prime Minister Imran Khan arrived in Karachi on Saturday to unveil a massive Rs1100bn three-year development plan for the city

Addressing a news conference at the Governor House, the prime minister said that the 'historic' Rs1100bn Karachi development package will cater to the city's diverse problems ranging from water, transport and solid waste management issues.

"It is important that different entities have jurisdiction in Karachi," he said. "Implementation of plans was difficult before but now, through the PCIC, it will be easy as the federal and provincial governments and the army will be monitoring it," he added.

The prime minister stressed on reforming the transport system in Karachi, adding that the Green Line and various BRT lines were included in the plan.

"The government will decide about the transport and roads' issue today," he said.

PM Imran said that one of the most major problems of Karachi related to solid waste management and that it will be solved as well.
