Hyderabad City Traffic Management Plan.

13 May

HYDERABAD CITY TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT PLAN NEEDS REVIVAL ON URGENT BASIS:

This is for the kind attention of Hyderabad Government that literally there is no traffic management plan for our great city of Hyderabad Sindh in place. Nothing exists to improve daily traffic jams and horrible accidents and chicken fights among citizens of Hyderabad Sindh. Due to such alarming situation citizens of Hyderabad Sindh have become SHORT TEMPERED,HIGHLY STRESSED,RISE IN BLOOD PRESSURE and WORSENING OF MENTAL HEALTH. Every day hundreds of people attack and hand fight on the streets of our city due to traffic chaos. Are we waiting to be hit by a big incident which will again soak our city in blood. Please we live in modern times and if we plan we can avoid all such troubles and create a peaceful environment in our city.

Why it is so difficult to plan and implement Traffic Management in Hyderabad Sindh while city of Lahore has successfully adopted and implemented various plans. If they can do it we can also do it. There is no Rocket Science involved in it.
 
Following are my suggestions:
 
1. Please hire un-employed young graduates both men and women as Traffic Control Officers. Give them modern traffic control cars and motor bikes like Lahore and other cities. Then you will see the amazing results.

2. Please Please install “TRAFIC LIGHTS” in all intersections Major or small in all areas of City, Qasimabad and Latifabad. Make sure that these Traffic lights are  functional and has to work all the times.And appoint these young Traffic control Officers to strictly implement Traffic Signal rules.

3. Please mark all the highways and streets of Hyderabad Sindh including City, Qasimabad, and Latifabad with international standard marks, lines, concrete dividers, arrows, and Sign Boards with directions written in English, Sindhi and Urdu languages.

4. Please hold constantly Public Awareness meetings about Traffic Management by involving people.

5. Those who break traffic rules must be strictly punished regardless of their political, influential or rich high scale background. Rules are rules and should be equally implemented for both rich and poor. Without proper traffic sense we would not be able to resolve this issue.

IMPORTANT IDEAS TO RESOLVE ENERGY CRISIS IN HYDERABAD SINDH

13 May

This is for the kind information that if Hyderabad Government want they can resolve energy crisis for our city and we can also lead the whole nation of Pakistan. We are so lucky and fortunate that Hyderabad Sindh has a hot and humid windy weather year round and full sunlight. We can take advantage of our geographic location and warm windy climate and create and transform energy from Sun and high winds. We can install “WIND MILLS” and SOLAR ENERGY SYSTEMS. If we install 4 Wind mills each one for City, Qasimabad, Latifabad and Rural talukas and then 4 Solar Energy Stations again one for each Taluka. Trust me we will resolve all our energy crisis and we can Declare our city Hyderabad Sindh a city of Lights which never sleeps.

Asian Development Bank and Govt of Japan provides free technical assistance for installation of such systems and they also provide soft loans free from interests to attain alternative forms of energy. Now again Hyderabad Government has to work on modern lines and initiate the dialogue with the concerned authorities to get all for our city. When there is a will there is a way.

QASIMABAD IGNORED BY HYDERABAD DISTRICT GOVERNMENT

11 May

This is heartbreaking to see that Hyderabad District Government is completely ignoring Qasimabad.

Hyderabad Sindh consists of City+Qasimabad+Latifabad+Rural= Four Talukas.
But all the modern development work is taking place only in City and Latifabad as Qasimabad does not exist in Hyderabad Sindh. Such kind of attitude has no place at all. We need to bring harmony and peace in this already divided city of ours. Our city had enough of all destruction and hatred.
 
We have to stand together and serve all with no discrimination whatsoever. It is also noticed that whenever foreign delegates visit Hyderabad and meet District government officials only City and Latifabad representatives are invited in those meetings and Qasimabad Taluka administration is kept out. Such kind of racial behaviour and discriminatory attitude is NOT acceptable at all.
 
Yes i agree that all the hype is about Flyovers and Yes 2 of them are in Qasimabad. But apart from that one cannot see any other development like the way City and Latifabad have been taken care off. All major roads and streets of Qasimabad are broken and in worst conditions but no asphalt road construction plan for Qasimabad. All the roundabouts and street lights are broken. No plan to build green belts, beautify roundabouts, and install Mercury Street lights in Qasimabad as all these developments have taken place in City and Latiafabad areas. There is not a single traffic signal in Qasimabad. There is a great need to install traffic lights on all major intersections in Qasimabad.
 
Parks in Qasimabad and green spaces are urgently needed. Daily Water Shortages have become a new phenomenon since water line for Qasimabad has been shared with Latiafabad.
There are no modern Fire Fighting services or vehicles, Ambulances to help in events of emergency.
 
There are no modern Garbage pick up vehicles or modern waste disposal trucks.
 
Qasimabad urgently needs modern fire fighting facilities, ambulances and waste disposal management services. Zilla Nazim is responsibile for all citizens and all areas of Hyderabad Sindh but for some odd reason he has limited his services and himself only for the people of City and Latifabad.
Which is not fair and totally un-acceptable. We are all the same and one people. We have to learn from the mistakes of past. If we want to build our beautiful city a modern city then we have to treat every one and all areas equally. That is the only secret of success.

ANOTHER SET BACK FOR HYDERABAD SINDH

09 Mar

It is sad to know that all major federal departments of Pakistan has some sort of hatred against 2nd largest city of Sindh–The cultural Capital of Sindh and 3rd Largest City of Pakistan one of the oldest in the world with longest bazaar in the world. Since 19979 Hyderabad Sindh has been  ignored and a victim of Step Motherly treatment. All the federal Departments from PIA to Pakistan Railways, from PTV to Trade and Industries.

Our city has seen history of Broken Promises or Complete Shut Down. PIA dumped our city from their network and till this day they are not willing to resume flights. Pakistan Railways stole all our Railcars and already installed poles for electric trains and moved everything to Punjab Province. Then PTV was directed to work on opening a Television Station PTV Center in Hyderabad Sindh in 1970′s but in 1980′s this project was silently shelved and became the diet of dust. But the current news of Multan getting PTV Center and Pakistan Television Station in Multan will be functioning soon opens our old wounds. We are always happy to see modern development in all cities towns and villages of Pakistan. But we cannot accept double standards and discrimination and limited development in some pockets of Pakistan. I highly urge Hyderabad Government to contact PTV as soon as possible to remind them to fulfill their old promise of opening PTV Center in our City. It is injustice to see 3 PTV centers in one province and only one PTV center in Sindh.

MULTAN GETS 20 MILLION DOLLARS FROM ITALY for?????

05 Mar
This is for the kind information that after day night hard advocacy work of District Govt of Multan they are lucky to convince Govt of Italy to declare Multan the oldest living city in the world.
 
(WHICH I COMPLETELY DISAGREE CUZ THE OLDEST LIVING CITY ON EARTH IS HYDERABAD SINDH)
 
Well the ground work and propaganda of District govt of Multan successfully worked out and Italy has launched a Special project to Renovate and safeguard Multan under this project and Italy will spend 20 Million Dollars on Multan. At the same time Multan and Rome will be declared Twin Cities.
 
Good news for Multan but as citizen of Hyderabad Sindh i find it very unjust and misrepresented. I have been asking for a very long time in my blogs at ApnaHyderabad that Hyderabad Govt must take immediate initiative and i was the one who suggested to work on declaring Hyderabad and Rome twin cities. But no one paid any attention in higher ups in Hyderabad Govt and now we lost to Multan. Every other city in Punjab province is progressing very very fast on modern lines and thier aggressive and progressive planning is reaping fortunes for their cities. While we are going downwards. Please please please think on modern lines and plan for our Hyderabad Sindh. If Hyderabad Government had listened to my suggestions earlier and contacted Italy and France our Beloved city Hyderabad Sindh had got the same amount and project. Because genuinely Hyderabad Sindh is the Oldest living city on Earth and centuries old cultural capital of SINDH the Oldest civilization on Earth (Mohen-Jo-Daro— Indus Valley Civilization). But if we don’t get out to world capitals and promote then no one will know about us. We are living in a very fast times so we have to act fast. But sad to say in Our Hyderabad Sindh Higher ups don’t have that bold, strong future vision nor they have any aggressive planning. All they do is just copy cat some projects in Karachi.
 
That is not the solution to our unique city and its problems. We all know Hyderabad is the soul of Sindh as Paris is Soul of France, Rome is soul of Italy. We have to think on these lines.

THANKS FOR PUTTING HYDERABAD SINDH ON WORLD MAP AGAIN.

25 Jan

On behalf of all the citizens of Hyderabad Sindh living in Toronto,Canada and the Citizens living in Hyderabad Sindh we want to congratulate the hard efforts of Hyderabad Government to bring International Cricket back to our beloved city after a decade (10 Years). It is delightfull and amazing to see Hyderabad Sindh back on International Arena. It makes us all very proud. The way this one day international match was organized and planned it proved that we can do it if we want to do it. All the tribute goes to each and every one who was involved in this great task; Especially Hyderabad Government and Hyderabad Nazim. Again CONGRATULATIONS to all of you.

I hope that this spirit would be continued and in future International matches and other events will be held in our city regularly. And tradition of IGNORING HYDERABAD SINDH will be eliminated forever. We need a 5 Star hotel of International standards immediately to make our city a world class city. I would highly recommend that this grand hotel must consist CONFERENCE AND CONVENTION CENTRE OF WORLD LEVEL to hold high level international conferences and summits in our city.
 
This hotel must have a shopping arcade and cultural centre where Sindh cultural arts and crafts and heritage of Hyderabad should be on Display at the same time design and construction of this hotel must reflect our rich sindh culture Being Hyderabad the cultural capital of Sindh. This hotel should also have various world class restaurents catering different cuisines from Sindhi/Pakistani foods to Oriental and Western foods. Also massive parking area should also be built in this hotel complex.
 
I would also take this opportunity to remind Hyderabad Government to focus on Immediate Planning and Building (LIGHT RAIL).

Mass Transit Plan for our city. We cannot afford to delay this any more otherwise every one will suffer the consequences.

Launching Hyderabad Festival in March 2008!!!

25 Dec

Hyderabad Sindh City Government deserves THANKS A MILLION for doing such a noble and great deed to restore HISTORIC PAST of our city by restoring History and Heritage of Hyderabad Sindh.
The golden decision taken by the Honourable Lord Mayor Of Hyderabad Sindh is highly appreciable to renovate Landmark buildings of our city like Pakko Qilo (Fort), Mukhi House, olm Stead Hall, Mirs Tombs, etc and to open them for public during Hyderabad Festival in March 2008 is an amazing and long awaited action.
It is also highly remarkable that the explanatory boards in 3 languages; Sindhi,Urdu and English languages would also be installed and FINALLY these landmark structures would be rescued forever from decline.
 
Again Hyderabad Government Rocks and this government will always be remembered for its great noble deeds done for the city. Keep it up and we are all with you.

PIA INITIATES FLIGHTS FOR SIALKOT BUT NO FLIGHTS FOR HYDERABAD SINDH

05 Dec

PIA has initiated flights for Sialkot between Karachi and Sialkot from newly opened Sialkot International Airport and soon International flights would also be starting from Sialkot. Good News for People of Sialkot but sadly it exposes the racial and discriminatory policy of PIA which is National Airline of Pakistan but PIA has become an ETHNIC airline serving only to specific areas and specific people of Pakistan and completely IGNORING SINDH PROVINCE and HYDERABAD SINDH the 2nd largest city of Sindh province and 3rd largest city of Pakistan by NOT RESUMING Flights for Hyderabad Sindh. Hyderabad Airport stands completely FUNCTIONAL but without flights. Citizens of Hyderabad Sindh are deeply disturbed and appalled by such kind of double standards and discrimination of PIA against the Citizens of Hyderabad Sindh.

People of Hyderabad Sindh demand that PIA MUST RESUME its FLIGHTS from Hyderabad Sindh for major National and International destinations.

DOWNTOWN & QASIMABAD AREAS ARE IGNORED!!!

20 Nov

GREAT NEWS FOR HYDERABAD SINDH BUT DOWNTOWN & QASIMABAD AREAS ARE IGNORED:
 
It is very exciting to know that two new flyovers are going to be built in Hyderabad Sindh.
Every citizen of the city is delighted. But it is sad to know that Downtown core and Qasimabad areas are completely ignored in Flyover plannings. There is an Urgent need to build at least 4 flyovers or underpasses immediately to resolve the deepening Traffic crisis. Following are the places where these flyovers/underpasses are URGENTLY needed.
 
1.Tilak Chari (Downtown Core)
2.Kohinoor Chowk/Resham Gali Entrance/Haider Chowk (Downtown Core)
3.Wadhoo Wah/Sindh Museum/Entrance to Main Qasimabad Road (Qasimabad)
4.Wahdat Colony & Thandi Sarak Intersection (Qasimabad)
 
At the same time there is also immediate need to restart installing Pedestrian Bridges in all busy intersections of City, Qasimabad and Latifabad. So far only one such kind of bridge is installed near Hotel City Gate.

LAHORE AND CHICAGO DECLARED SISTER CITIES

10 Nov

LAHORE AND CHICAGO DECLARED SISTER CITIES BUT OUR BELOVED HYDERABAD SINDH STANDS ALONE:
 
This is for the kind information for all the well wishers of Hyderabad Sindh that we need to rise up and do some image building exercises to raise the profile and image of our beloved city Hyderabad on International level and make it a World Class City by signing Sister city agreements with matching cities of the world of our size, caliber and Historic and Cultural status.
Lahore has signed 10 such agreements and now Chicago, Usa and Lahore are declared sister cities. We always underestimate our city and being lived in long and dark depression we have become scared to take lead. We should be Proud of our city as we are one of the oldest city of South Asia and a very unique city in the world. Hyderabad Government must initiate these efforts to declare Hyderabad Sindh a sister city with other International cities by signing agreements with respective city governments. According to my Research and Analysis Hyderabad Sindh can easily be declared Sister City with Following cities based on matching criteria’s.
1.Isfahan, Iran
2.Chengdu,China
3.Berlin,Germany
4.Bourdeax,France
5.Quebec City, Canada
6.Hiroshima,Japan (They survived Atomic Bomb & We survived the worst kind of bloody civil war)
7.Sanna,Yemen.
 
 

I am sure the concerned authorities would pay immediate attention to this very important factor for the fast development of our city.
