@ Aziz These days the law enforcement agencies are hardly found on the roads after 8 p.m as they have to take their own safety measures. What next if the terrorists emerge in law enforcement agency uniforms and create road blocks to welcome the vehicle users ..??????
All ministers of Sindh specially Qaim Shah should be banned to travel in cars for one month. They should all use motor cycles with no double sawari.
Instead of improving intelligence gathering and catching the real culprits.......the government AGAIN takes the STUPID way out.
this can only expect form sindh govt but i am very sorry for sindh govt that the target killers are now very clever they can manage their daily routine job no matter if it is ban on pillion still they are successful to put the total (10) (15) (20)
Oh god, not again. Reform the goddamn police instead for resorting to such measures. Sindh Govt continues to make life miserable for people of karachi.
Pakistan should give tax benefit to single seat vehicle
