Karachi is facing another heavy rain spell and it has not only affected the people but proved to be a serious issue for cars and bikes. This year, the metropolitan city has received heavy rains continuously which has disrupted the daily life. And sadly, this is not the first time, this city is facing the issue, and people are not happy from it as the water has submerged masses, their houses, and their bikes and cars.
During the fresh rain spell, people have shared multiple videos and bikes being submerged in the rain water and it is just sad because for most of us, car is a huge deal, and same as the bike. Most of us buy these vehicles from hard earned money and many people own their purchase for quite a long time. And seeing them submerging like that is heartbreaking.
Here are some of the videos and pictures, what rain has done to vehicles in the city of Karachi.
Karachi and Sindh are being destroyed because there is Zardari's PPP government which has only done corruption. And Zardari is worried about Punjab, he is buying people with his looted money to save Punjab.#KarachiRains #بوٹ_کھٹےہیں

The rain spell is so heavy that Sindh government has announced a public holiday in Karachi today. We hope that, learning from this year’s disaster, the government will learn its mistakes and take concrete steps to avoid such situations next time.
Furthermore, if you want to know what should you do after your car is flooded with rain water. Read our blog here. Also, if you want to know what how should you ride a bike in rain, you can watch our this vlog.
Lastly, stay safe people of Karachi and avoid travelling unless it is very essential.
Note: We are only sharing the videos to show the condition of cars and bikes, PakWheels.com has no relation with the political statements given/written in these tweets.
People spreading such videos are fooling everyone, the reason, until mid 90s rains such as these were very frequent in Karachi and yet nothing happened because back then properties were not built upon encroached land, nor were they piled high on natural waterways. It is therefore, people grabbing the land and then building property over it who are to be blamed for causing misery in low slung areas.
P.S. the faker can be identified easily by posting the label Karachi and Sind, Karachi is part of Sind just like Islamabad or Peshawar are of Punjab and KPK. Therefore team Pak wheels please act responsibly and do not post one side of the situation.
First the missing of water drainage system.
Second thing is the missing rainwater storage system, to use for agriculture.
Implementing those two things will resolve a lot of our issues.
