KARACHI: City District Government Karachi (CDGK) has ensured concrete security measures for Muharram-Ul Haram while Capital City Police (CCP) and Citizens Police Liaison Committee (CPLC) have been facilitated with direct access to CDGK’s Command and Control Room for strict vigilance on certain sensitive areas especially from the Nishter Park to Merewether Tower through latest close circuit cameras and latest monitoring technology.
Thus the CDGK has paved ways for flawless vigilance of city’s specified routes so as to ensure maximum protection for the citizens of the city, as the arrangements have been made to cover inch-by-inch of the areas under vigilance.
City Nazim Syed Mustafa Kamal stated these views while he spent hours in the CDGK’s Command and Control Room to oversee the efficacy of these measures on Saturday.
Kamal then took to the streets to look at the practicability of assigned tasks, which he declared satisfactory.
During his visit, officer deputed on ascertaining the pons and crons of the arrangements briefed him that the CDGK has in pursuance to Police’s advice established various monitoring camps on the routes of Muharram while city wardens and fire brigade would remain alert at various designated locations.
Kamal on that occasion said that CCP personnel led by a senior police officer and the CPLC officials would monitor city’s situation from CDGK’s Command and Control Room for two days, adding that the city government has already finalized all the arrangements in this regard.
Kamal said that the entire route of Muharram procession commencing from the Nishter Park to Merewether Tower especially M A Jinnah Road was sensitive and important as regards to religious and political events. Henceforth, CDGK has arranged for the monitoring of every inch of the area.
Kamal added that CDGK’s Command and Control System was not devised only to function during Muharram days but it tends to be serving throughout the year and round the clock.
Kamal expressed his hopes as he commented that with the use of CDGK’s Command and Control System, CCP and other law enforcement agencies would get tangible assistance regarding executing their professional responsibilities.
Kamal said that in order to provide dedicated services to the mourners, CDGK has made excellent arrangements for Muharram as the fire brigade, doctors, paramedics, ambulances, water and sewerage jetting machines have been deployed on different locations on the route of procession so that they could react anytime in cases of emergencies.
It is pertinent to mention that the CDGK has deployed CWs, CDGK Ambulance service 1122, fire brigade and KWSB officials at Missile Fuwwara Chowrangi and Preedy Street. The CWs have been assigned to stay alert at Kharadar, Jama Cloth Market, Old Numaish, Ayesha Manzil, Nishter Park, Ancholi, Jamia Sibtain, Abu Turab, DHA Phase-IV and at signal free corridors.
