KARACHI: The targeted operations in Karachi have been successful so far, Sindh Chief Minister Qaim Ali Shah said while talking to the media on Monday, Express News reported.

He added that Rangers and police personnel are committed to rid the city of terrorism, further stating that 15,000 criminals have been arrested as of yet.

“The law and order issue of Karachi has been present for 20 years and it will take time to resolve the issue,” the minister stated at the function.

The targeted operation started in Karachi after Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif visited the metropolitan in September in a bid to devise a strategy to curb violence.

With the provincial government on board, the prime minister had given a go-ahead to the paramilitary force to conduct raids and arrest criminals with the help of the police. Subsequently, the operation began on September 7.
