He also said Karachi is located in the southern part of Pakistan and faces a water shortage of about 20 percent. The minister said the opening of the Bhutto Highway has helped many people. According to him, travel time has reduced for commuters. He added that police, ambulance, and rescue teams are available on the highway to help people in emergencies.
