ISLAMABAD: Prime Minister Imran Khan was keen to provide better facilities for the people of Karachi, Pakistan's economic and commercial hub, SAPM on Information and Broadcasting, Dr Firdous Ashiq Awan said on Thursday.
Speaking during a programme on a private TV channel, Dr Awan said all-out efforts were being made in this regard to remove the complaints of MQM-P — the ruling PTI's coalition partner in Sindh — in running the affairs in metropolis' different constituencies.
The Karachi-based party's genuine reservations were being resolved, while their remaining demands will be fulfilled in consultation with their leaders, she said, underlining that there was no serious issue between the MQM and the PTI.
In the political system, any party member could have parleys with other members, the special assistant added.
The PTI government had held seats in Karachi but an allocation of Rs162 billion by the ruling party's leadership would help address the citizens' legitimate concerns, Dr Awan said.
