English Essay - Life In Karachi
English Essay on Life In Karachi 200 to 300 Words
LIFE IN KARACHI
Points Introduction - Machine life - Expanding city - Problems Attraction - Conclusion.
Karachi is the biggest city and seaport of Pakistan. It was a small village when Mohammad, bin Qasim conquered Sind some thirteen years ago. Now it has become the biggest city of Pakistan, having 75,00,000 population. People from different parts of Pakistan have come to settle here.
Life in Karachi has its charms and attractions but is has its own peculiar problems too. The city is never quiet and throbs with life all through the day. All are extremely busy. They have a machine life. They have no time to stand and stare. They work round the clock and find no time to enjoy life. Man has become selfish. Friendship has lost its charm. Old values of life are in decline.
When I was a kid, the city of Karachi then was really far peaceful, clean and less crowded than it is now. It is expanding by leaps and bound. All around the proper city, we find suburban localities sprouting without an end. Fashionable plazas and squares have sprung up at every nook and corner of the city. Individuals have also built thousands of small and big buildings for themselves. In Karachi we find large crowd everywhere. City bazars look like colourful fairs. It would not be unfair to say that Karachi has turned into a city of shopping centers.
Karachi is, infact a city of problems. People face a host of problems at every step. Transport is so pressing that it effects everyone. Proper water supply, sewerage and sanitation pose another serious problem to the Karachites. The supply of power is also inadequate and far from satisfactory. Housing is yet another problem in Karachi. The bulk of population is poor and they are the worst effected due to exorbitant rent. It is very unfortunate that even after thirty nine years of our independence, we have not been able to overcome any of the fore mentioned

    Karachi based business communities of Memons, Khojas and Bhoras had led the first wave of industrial development in Pakistan but it were they who suffered most in the seperation of East Pakistan and Bhutto's nationalization. These business communities had been seasoned by persecutions of different types in their abodes in India and elsewhere, particularly, Burma, and therefore, they responded in the only way that was expected in such a situation , i.e switch over investment and move abroad. It is not surprising that several leading industrial families of the 1970 era have not set up a single big industrial project…

    Walled City of Lahore, PakistanZachary M. KronINTRODUCTIONThis case study on urban development in the province of Punjab focuses on the Pakistan Environmental Planning and Architectural Consultant 's efforts to create and implement an urban conservation plan for the walled city of Lahore in the early 1980 's. With a population of four million in 1992,1 this old quarter of Lahore is under tremendous pressure from commercial and industrial interests, which as yet have little regard for the historic nature of the city. In addition to these active menaces, the city is struggling to integrate new municipal services into its existent tissue without obscuring its visual character. Although few interventions have actually been achieved, several higher profile "pilot projects" have been carried out in an effort to raise public awareness of the conservation plan.CONTEXTPhysical…

    I always believed that Pakistan could never truly progress in these sectors due to the attitude of its leaders and general public alike. However, I was pleasantly surprised during my visit to the colonies of Fauji Fertilizer Company, Goth Machhi and Engro Fertilizer Limited, Daharki. The organization and discipline ensured by the colony authorities was remarkable. Traffic rules were religiously obeyed and it was perfectly safe for a bunch of girls to go for a stroll at night. I never imagined I would live to see the day when Pakistani people would achieve these two things, let alone find them presently existing in some corner of this massive country.…

    The earliest records of the Walled City date back to the 11th century, although Its earliest evidence dates to between the 4th and 5th centuries A.D.

In more recent times, it has grown from 260,000 in 1980 to 600,000 in 2005 (Majeed Sheikh 2004).…
