Karachi exported more than 50% of total exports. This is in-spite of:
1)PM engaging at any serious level
2)Civic infra development
3)Industrial investment by gov
4)Road + rail links (commercial)
5) Low cost housing
6)Grassroots schools

Now imagine if the IK+Govt invested in Khi

4,505 companies located in Karachi (Sindh) exported $13.818 billion i.e. 50.78 percent of the country’s total exports in 2020-21 compared to 4,137 companies located in Karachi exported $10.999 billion i.e. 51.21 percent of the total exp in 2019-20.

Serious lack of moral courage and apathy, expect more from the Govt & a PM who can actually read the data.

2,262 companies located in Lahore exported $4.719 billion i.e.17.34% of the country’s total exp in20-21 compared $3.906 billion i.e.18.19 percent of the total exp in 19-20

$ for $ zero has been done in KHI, our crippling infrastructure has continued to give gifts to the govt that would have crippled by now due to $ pressures had Karachi not produced the economic output it did, yet the powers be continue to over index on pockets of their electables

This is akin to economic terrorism, continue to marginalise the largest tax base, ignore (taxing)the feudal land owners, as they sit in government, continue development projects in KPK & Punjab, whilst the local govt in Sindh doesn't help either the federation is also checked out

B4 you get all riled up on ethnic divide & khi vs lahore stuff, its the data silly. Where does/is the govt spending tax payer money the most? If you get past your emotions and check further, you will have your answer. Yet Karachi continues to be disproportionally generous to all.
