KARACHI: City Nazim Syed Mustafa Kamal has said that street crimes could be overcome in mega and metropolitan cities of Pakistan through local and community based policing. He stated this while addressing a delegation of trainee officers of National Management College (NMC) Lahore on a study tour of Karachi. The NMC delegation led by NMC Dean Iftikhar Ahmed called on City Nazim Syed Mustafa Kamal at his office on Monday.
The City Nazim said that the city holds strategic importance in the region. The City District Government Karachi presented the best model of good governance before the world while ensured city’s huge development with Rs 250 billion during the last four and half years.
He said that the city contributes 68 percent in the national income that is why the anti state elements wanted to destabilize the economy of the metropolis so that they hit the country.
However, thanks to the timely and effective action of the intelligence agencies the city could be saved from the terrorist, adding that the CDGK has introduced a unique and latest command and control system, which proved helpful in controlling crimes.
The members of the NMC delegation said that they got to know more about the city and the development process initiated by the present CDGK during their visit to the city.
They appreciated the command and control center and other steps for provision of better facilities to the citizens.
