In praise of Karachi police

Letter August 24, 2012
Karachiites should be proud of its police force and hope that it improves its performance in other areas, too.

KARACHI: We often see ordinary citizens and the media always ready to criticise the Karachi Police for their inefficiency and poor performance. However, during the month of Ramazan and especially during the Eid holidays, the Karachi Police excelled in their performance. They carried out the duties of guarding the city’s mosques and Eidgahs with all honesty. Not a single untoward incident took place in any place of worship during Eid, which goes to the credit of the Karachi Police. Karachiites should be proud of its police force and hope that it improves its performance in other areas, too.
