Karachi:Residents of Karachi have expressed their support for the formation of new administrative units within the city. The move is seen as a necessary step due to the significant population growth since Pakistan's independence.

According to Radio Pakistan, locals believe that the city's population, which was relatively small at the time of independence, has now increased manifold. This surge in population has made it inevitable to introduce changes to the existing administrative system to better manage the city's needs.

The sentiment in Karachi mirrors that of other cities across the country, where there is a growing demand for new administrative structures to cope with increasing urban populations.
