Like his predecessors, the new DIG Traffic, Pir Muhammad Shah, has also failed to alleviate the suffering of citizens due to severe traffic jams before iftar.
The indifference and lack of interest of the traffic cops on Rashid Minhas Road has forced citizens to endure the worst traffic jam. Long queues of vehicles were seen on the track from Millennium Mall to Nipa Flyover, while the driver of an Edhi ambulance was also helpless, repeatedly blowing the emergency siren.
Citizens stuck in the worst traffic jam said that senior traffic police officers only make claims about controlling traffic through statements, but the ground realities are different.
"It's already 6pm, and looking at the long queues of vehicles, it seems like we will have to break our fast on the road," said a commuter.
Citizens have to endure a torturous journey every day due to the worst traffic jam, but the claims of traffic police officers about smooth traffic flow remain unchanged.
At the start of Ramazan, traffic police made loud claims about maintaining traffic flow, but to what extent they have been successful can be gauged by looking at the long queues of vehicles on Rashid Minhas Road before iftar.
On Tuesday evening, long queues of vehicles were also seen on Sharea Faisal at the Drig Road underpass, severely affecting traffic flow. Similarly, vehicles were stuck in traffic jams on the Korangi Causeway track.
