00:00Welcome back.
00:30Today we have with us Mr. Shijreel Inaam Memon, who has joined us to talk about this issue.
00:35Mr. Shijreel Inaam, thank you very much for taking the time for us.
00:37Sir, in the past year alone, more than 650 city traffic accidents have taken place in Karachi,
00:41and the major reason for this is dumpers and trucks.
00:44The Sindh government has made laws, but the police are not able to enforce them.
00:47The question is, whose failure is this death?
00:50Is it the Sindh government or the police?
00:53In the name of God, thank you.
00:55Mr. Shijreel Inaam, I would like to make it clear that the government definitely does not want such incidents to happen.
01:02Unfortunately, this is one of the reasons why we have driving licenses in the whole of Pakistan.
01:09I am talking about the whole of Pakistan, not just one province.
01:12We have all the governments to enforce the traffic laws.
01:17And this is not just a matter of one political party, not just a matter of one time.
01:21I am talking about the whole of Pakistan.
01:23Maybe all the political parties have not taken these issues so seriously.
01:31But what is important is that the driving license should be given on merit.
01:35The driver should know the laws of driving.
01:38Apart from that, another very important factor is whether the vehicles are fit enough to drive on the roads.
01:46Do the vehicles have proper fitness?
01:48Unfortunately, they do not have fitness.
01:50Another issue is that the drivers we have, are they driving underage?
01:57Yes, unfortunately, they are driving underage.
01:59Obviously, the traffic police are responsible for stopping this.
02:04And they try to do their job.
02:06But they also have a resource issue.
02:10But I agree that all the heavy vehicles we have, the government has set timings for them.
02:18They have set routes for them.
02:20But unfortunately, they keep violating them.
02:24And unfortunately, we have very little sense of driving.
02:33Mr. Sharjeel, if we look at Karachi, there is a lot of facilitation for transport.
02:39There is a yellow line, there are pink buses.
02:41But when we talk about traffic, when there is a traffic jam,
02:45until this thing is included in the news, until the government takes notice of it,
02:50we do not see the traffic police on the roads, so that the traffic can be managed properly,
02:57or can be assisted in it.
02:59What is your government doing to ensure that the traffic police can continue their work properly?
03:07But let me tell you that we should not let the traffic police do this.
03:11Because the poor traffic police officer who is standing on the road,
03:14he is trying to do his duty even in the heat and cold.
03:19See, this is our responsibility.
03:22For example, you have put up a very big solid base,
03:25but a man is throwing out the water from the car,
03:29he is throwing out the garbage, he is throwing out the trash.
03:31If I am throwing out my garbage from my house, then it is obvious that I am doing wrong.
03:36In the same way, for driving, the driving sense, the laws of driving, everyone knows.
03:40If a person is breaking the red light when there is a traffic jam,
03:45what is the meaning of that?
03:47He knows that I do not want to walk on the red light, but he is doing it on purpose.
03:50He is doing it in his haste, he is doing it by losing his mind, or he is doing it wrong.
03:54But we will have to increase the punishments.
03:56The essence of all this is that we will have to increase the punishments,
04:00and we will have to make the punishments harder than the punishments and traffic violations in the world,
04:09so that people do not do those things.
04:12People take it very casually.
04:14Now these drivers go to another country because they know that the laws there are strict,
04:20so there are jails there, everything happens there, people drive their cars there.
04:25The drivers of these areas are the best drivers there.
04:30But in our country, people think that they are superior to the law,
04:33whether they are rich or poor, whether they drive a Land Cruiser or a Chinchilla.
04:40Everyone thinks they are superior to the law.
04:43And this heavy traffic is exactly the same thing, unfortunately.
04:46That is why we need traffic awareness.
04:48I will tell you, I will listen to you.
04:51Obviously, the first responsibility is of the government.
04:53So I will not call the government an outsider.
04:56The first responsibility is of the government.
04:57Along with the government, it is also the responsibility of all the private people of the civil society
05:02that we follow the law of the land.
05:05If everyone thinks that the law of the land is in my pocket,
05:09then unfortunately, the responsibility lies with those innocent people
05:16who are going to lose their lives.
05:20Mr. Shirjeel, Governor of Sindh, Mr. Kamran Tesori has also said that
05:23he will tell the Minister of Sindh to order the IG police and DIG traffic
05:27to carry out an operation against the dumpers by tonight.
05:31So should we expect an operation by tonight?
05:34Look, you have seen the question, against the dumpers.
05:37What operation are you expecting?
05:41That the dumpers should be stopped in the city?
05:43Look, I will tell you now, in the city, wherever the development work is going on,
05:47let's suppose roads are being built here,
05:49the rest of the work is also going on here,
05:51PRTs are also being built here, a lot of things are going on.
05:53So will the people bring the goods in the dumpers?
05:56Definitely.
05:57When your construction material will come in the dumpers?
06:00Yes.
06:01There is a timing that we will go at that timing.
06:03But at that timing, unfortunately, it is not the fault of the dumper,
06:07it is the fault of the dumper driver.
06:08And if, God forbid, a motorcycle driver is over-speeding,
06:13or a Chimchi rickshaw driver, or a car driver, or a pedestrian,
06:17or even traffic,
06:18we need more awareness on the traffic sense.
06:24More people need to fulfill their responsibilities in that.
06:28Closing the dumpers will not solve this problem.
06:30You will close the dumpers tomorrow.
06:32The water tanker will start working.
06:34The water tanker will start working tomorrow.
06:35The bus driver will start working.
06:37Unfortunately, we have highway accidents in the over-speed of buses,
06:40which are due to drivers' negligence or haste.
06:43Thank you very much, Mr. Sharjeel Mehman.
06:46The Minister of Information and Transport was with us in the morning.
06:49And we talked to you about this whole situation.
06:52And we also learned about the situation.
06:53We will talk more about this.
06:55Mr. Manam Zafar has joined us.
06:56He is a member of Jamaat-e-Islam-e-Karachi.
06:57Thank you very much, Mr. Manam.
06:58Please tell us.
06:59If we look at the overall situation of Karachi,
07:01then there are so many traffic accidents
07:03that children are also running around in it every day.
07:06Many children are also running around.
07:08Dumpers are present in Karachi.
07:10Because of this, the number of accidents is also increasing.
07:13According to you, how should all these situations be controlled?
07:16And how should the government control it?
07:20Look, it is the responsibility of the government to control all these situations.
07:24Or it is the responsibility of the local authorities
07:26to play their role in controlling all these situations.
07:31The problem is not only with the dumpers.
07:33When trawlers leave the city, they also have accidents.
07:37And big accidents in the city are happening through tankers
07:41through which the citizens of Karachi are supplied with water.
07:45There are broken roads.
07:47When tankers and dumpers run on these broken roads,
07:51as a result of which the accidents are happening.
07:53Many accidents have happened
07:55that a motorcycle rider fell on a broken road.
07:59The tanker coming from behind crushed him.
08:01And in the city of Karachi,
08:03in these 11.5 months,
08:05from January to today,
08:07more than 750 incidents have occurred.
08:09Incidents of accidents,
08:11in which people have died.
08:13In which people have died.
08:15And among these,
08:17there are more than 150 such incidents
08:19in which tankers, trawlers and dumpers are present.
08:23Now, it is the responsibility of the government
08:25to make a mechanism for this.
08:27The government should make a mechanism
08:29to ensure that the citizens
08:31should get a picture
08:33for the citizens.
08:35And through the media,
08:37the citizens should play their role.
08:39When all the transport in the city is a tanker,
08:41when the major transport in the city is a motorcycle,
08:45then thousands of motorcycle riders
08:47leave the city.
08:49In fact, there are hundreds of thousands of motorcycle riders in the city.
08:51There are tankers in the city.
08:53So, you have to make some rules and regulations.
08:55The problem with us is that
08:57the traffic police in the city
08:59does not work to control the traffic.
09:01The children are doing all the work.
09:03That is, the traffic police
09:05are standing in groups of 5-6.
09:07They are collecting money from people.
09:09They are stopping the motorcycle riders.
09:11But the tankers pass in front of them.
09:13The trawlers pass in front of them.
09:15The containers pass in front of them.
09:17And the dumpers pass in front of them.
09:19But these people do not stop them.
09:21The solution to this is
09:23that there should be some timing.
09:25There should be a timing for the dumpers.
09:27Similarly, there should be a timing for the tankers.
09:29The tankers are a complete mafia.
09:31The way these people behave,
09:33the way the tankers are running fast,
09:35whether they have a license or not,
09:37it is the responsibility of the government
09:39to assess the whole situation.
09:41It is the responsibility of the relevant institutions.
09:43The real thing is
09:45that the citizens of Karachi
09:47should be released as soon as possible.
09:49As a result of the destruction of the infrastructure,
09:51the people of Karachi
09:53are suffering.
09:55As a result of the lack of water,
09:57the people of Karachi are suffering.
09:59As a result of reckless driving,
10:01the people of Karachi are suffering.
10:03After all, people die.
10:05Okay.
10:07Mr. Munnam Zafar has joined us.
10:09Mir Jamaat-e-Islami, Karachi.
10:11Thank you very much, Mr. Munnam Zafar.

10:21The police has said that
10:23the most motorcyclists are the victims of the accidents.
10:25Let's get the details
10:27from our representative, Salman Lodhi.
10:29Salman, tell us, what are the statistics?

10:35that the police has now decided
10:37to run a special campaign
10:39for the awareness of traffic laws.
