Bushra Ansari Voices Deep Concern Over Karachi’s Deteriorating Condition

Pakistani senior actress Bushra Ansari has expressed serious concern over the worsening situation in Karachi, questioning whether the city’s authorities, many of whom are residents themselves, truly care for their hometown.

In a video message shared on Instagram, Bushra Ansari highlighted the city’s alarming issues, saying, “The situation of garbage, broken roads, poor infrastructure, and a dysfunctional sanitation system has reached a worrying level.”

She further emphasized Karachi’s economic importance, noting, “Karachi provides employment to the entire country, yet no effective measures have been taken to improve it over the past decades. I am not speaking against any political party, but the responsible authorities need to take action.”

Through her message, Ansari appealed to citizens to raise their voices for change, questioning, “But ultimately, who will this appeal be against? Whether politicians or officials, in the past 30–40 years, no one has taken concrete steps to resolve Karachi’s basic problems.”

The actress also highlighted the human cost of neglect, pointing to incidents like children falling into open manholes. She urged that hope and hospitality alone are not enough, and practical measures are needed, “Now it is time that it does not remain limited to words but practical steps like cleaning, infrastructure restoration, and a systematic management plan are implemented.”
