It's eco-cide. Killing a river bed to build a road. The last surviving river of Karachi is being turned into an expressway

سندھ ہائیکورٹ نے ملیر ندی کے اندر ریتی بجری یا مٹی اٹھانے سے سختی روک رکھا ہے تاہم درجنوں ڈمپرز کی مدد سے یہ کام دھڑلے سے جاری ہے معلوم نہیں کس کی ناک کے نیچے ہورہا ہے؟ کیا یہ کام قدرتی سیلابی گزر گاہوں اور ماحولیاتی خرابی کا سبب نہیں بن رہا؟

This week in @indevmag: in 2014, Jakarta was crowned the world's most congested city. In the last decade, it has also added *ten million* new residents - a perfect recipe for yet more gridlock. And yet the traffic has improved. Nithin Coca explains how: indevelopmentmag.com/jakarta-transi…

A very rare example of a Persian inscription in Gurgaon is situated near my home, on this 200-yr-old monument. It is the grave of Major Etienne, a French soldier of fortune who worked for Begum Samru. This area (Sectors 39-40) was part of the Begum's Badshahpur-Jharsa Jagir.

We did public audit of Delhi's bus stops and findings are shocking. the audit by @ptf_delhi covered 231 bus stops in 10 districts and found that 40% of them don't have seating, 9 out of 10 have no ramp, 8 out of 10 have no pedestrian crossing, and two-third have no lighting. In a city facing extreme heat, 17% of bus stops don’t even have a roof. Here are some of the other main findings: - 20% do not have name board - 43% do not have route information - 99% have no drinking water facility nearby (the same is true for public toilets) - Only 3% have both lighting and CCTV together - 1 in 6 bus stops are 'High Risk' with no preparedness for summer heat

Those who voted in favour of today's transfers have penalised judges for daring to raise their voice for judicial independence. The dismantling of what was once one of the most courageous courts in the country is yet another gift of the 27th amendment.

Politicians are not celebrities. They are public servants and they’ve forgotten their place.
