He said that the names, boundaries, and important buildings and landmarks of all 106 roads under KMC should be identified so that citizens can easily benefit.
The Mayor of Karachi also stated that all information related to the fire brigade, including fire station numbers and necessary instructions should be available on the KMC website. Additionally, video clips and photos of recreational spots should be uploaded to the website.
