KARACHI: Administrator Karachi Barrister Murtaza Wahab ordered to telecast the much-awaited clash between arch-rivals India and Pakistan on big screens across different points of the city to raise funds for the flood victims.
Following this, the high-octane match between Pakistan and India will now be aired live on big screens at Karachi Municipal Corporation (KMC) headquarters, Frere Hall, Hill Park, Safari Park, and Urban Forest Clifton and flood relief camps will be set up simultaneously at the announced locations.
According to the details, Administrator Karachi released the order in a bid to raise funds and display solidarity with the flood victims, while requesting the citizens to deposit donations in the flood relief camps.
“We request the citizens to donate to the flood relief camp as there is an urgent need for tents, rations, medicines, firewood and drinking water for the flood victims in Sindh. The Sindh government is providing aid to the victims, but philanthropists should also participate in this charity because we have to help our brothers and sisters in this difficult time,” Administrator Karachi appealed to the masses.
“The match between traditional rivals Pakistan and India in the Asia Cup is also taking place on Sunday, so to mark the occasion, there will be big screens set up at KMC Head Office, Frere Hall, Safari Park, Hill Park and Urban Forest Clifton along with the flood relief camp. The arrangements will be made to telecast this match so that citizens can enjoy the match and do their humanitarian duty by donating to the flood relief fund,” he further added.
It is pertinent to mention here that the high-octane clash between Pakistan and India is scheduled on August 28.
