KMC admits misunderstanding over traffic fines resolution

Council session wrongfully signs resolution ‘passed’ due to oversight, matter to be re-tabled

A misunderstanding occurred during a council session held on Friday regarding a resolution related to traffic fines in the city, the Karachi Metropolitan Corporation has acknowledged.

Upon review of the council’s official records, it was observed that the said resolution – though tabled by certain council members – was not properly discussed or debated during the session.

Further, the document was mistakenly signed and recorded as “passed” due to administrative oversight, despite the fact that it had not undergone the necessary deliberation process.

The resolution concerning traffic fines has, therefore, not yet been approved, the Karachi Metropolitan Corporation has clarified.

The Karachi Metropolitan Corporation states that it remains committed to maintaining transparency, procedural accuracy, and accountability regarding all council affairs.

Measures are all being taken to ensure that similar administrative oversights or procedural errors do not occur in the future, the Corporation assures.
