After months of wait, Karachi witnessed a few hours of rain, and the newly-appointed Administrator Murtaza Wahab came into action as he visited different areas to review the situation of the metropolitan city.
The heavy rain drowned the city and caused waterlogging and traffic jams in several areas.
Taking notice of the rain ravages, Murtaza Wahab visited Teen Talwar, Cantt Station, Metroville, Burns Road, Regal Chowk, and MA Jinnah Road.
He also toured Hyderi, Nagan Chowrangi, Sakhi Hassan, Tariq Road, Drigh Road, and Tipu Sultan Road.
