00:00 There is another issue in Ramadan. We are talking about Ramadan and the issues. This shouldn't happen in Ramadan. This is the month of Babusar. But these are our own issues. These are our own issues.
00:12 And now the issue that is happening and that is going to happen further, because 15 Ramadans have passed and now people will go out for shopping.
00:20 Before Iftar, there is a rush. Now after Iftar, there will be a lot of rush, especially in big cities like Karachi, Lahore and other cities where people will go out for shopping.
00:30 Now you will see that will be a tragedy of the city of Khandagi in Pakistan. Who is educated, how much civil literacy is there.
00:38 People don't have sense, they park their cars anywhere and because of that one wrong parking, long queues start.
00:46 Then people, as we told you, they have to do Iftar early. That's why they drive the car so fast and there are many incidents like this.
00:56 And if there is even a small fight, then the whole traffic is jammed.
01:02 Yes, I was about to say the same thing.
01:04 And after that, no signal is there.
01:05 That somewhere there is an incident, there is a fight, there are some business issues between the customer and the driver.
01:11 The crowd that stands there, because of that the traffic is jammed.
01:14 Then there is another problem, that the roads of Karachi are also the reason for the slow traffic, somewhere there is a jam, somewhere the road is not right.
01:26 And obviously the city needs mass transport, that is not the case here.
01:32 People have cars, one person is sitting in one car and going. Think how much traffic is increased by this.
01:38 So in Karachi, we are also seeing another reason for the slow traffic, that in this city, out of 171, only 54 signals are correct.
01:46 The rest are all wrong.
01:48 Now you tell me, people wait for the signal, or they just see that the car is not coming, then they just move the car forward.
01:54 This is what happens in this city.
01:56 In this city, a lot happens, but the new IG, Ulam Nabi Memon, he said that the money that is collected from the chalan, get this camera fixed.
02:06 But he also said that the traffic wardens should not stand in the way of the team.
02:11 So let's talk about all this, our representative Asif Khan is with us.
02:15 Asif, first of all, the problem is that in such a big city, if I am not wrong, there are around 150 signals, only 150 signals in such a big city.
02:24 Is this enough? And those 150 signals, 54 are running, meaning that already less than half are running.
02:34 Yes, it is exactly like that, the number of 171 is told and 54 traffic signals are told that they are running.
02:43 Right now, where I am present, the representative of the city is Chaurangi.
02:46 Here too, let me tell you, no signal is working here.
02:49 All the signals here are off, apart from that, the traffic police here are manually repeating the traffic flow from here, that is, with the gesture of the hand.
03:00 So this is the situation of the city and right now, this is the most important intersection of Karachi, Amarajina Road.
03:07 So when this is the situation here, then you can guess what is the situation in other areas.
03:12 This is the reason why the traffic flow in Karachi is not maintained.
03:17 And especially the peak hours in Ramadan Mubarak are during the time of iftar.
03:21 The hours a little before iftar are very peak hours, when the worst traffic jam happens.
03:27 Now, on the side of DIG traffic, an announcement was issued yesterday and it was said that from 5 pm to iftar, no one will have any traffic jam.
03:37 And the traffic flow will be maintained.
03:40 So how will the money be deducted from the camera?
03:43 It will be deducted in the morning.
03:45 Now, it has been said that the camera should be repaired with the fine in the amount of traffic jam, along with the armed police officers.
03:56 Now, let me tell you that on a daily basis, about 10,000 fines are being charged.
04:02 And the fine in the amount of fine is 1 crore rupees per day, which is taken from the citizens of Karachi in the amount of fine and fine.
04:11 Now, it has been said on the side of IGC that all these traffic signals should be repaired with the fine.
04:20 Along with that, cameras should be installed on the traffic signals so that they can be monitored.
04:26 This is a very good thing.
04:28 Thank you very much, Asif.
04:33 Now, see, people of Karachi, if you are stopped somewhere, if the traffic police stops you in the form of a group and says that you will be fined,
04:40 you do not have to worry, you do not have to be angry, you are contributing.
04:43 Contribute in what?
04:44 That the cameras will be repaired with the money you have been fined and the signals will be repaired.
04:49 Feel proud.
04:50 At least, we are getting some benefit from your fines or the tax we are paying.
