Reckless driving, narrow roads claimed thousands of precious human lives
Narrow road, reckless driving has claimed thousands of precious human lives on the Quetta-Karachi highway. The highway is commonly called the ‘killer highway’. Balochistan government has repeatedly announced the dualization of the highway. However, so far no practical step has been taken for the dualization of the highway, which links Balochistan with Sindh province.
Chief Minister Balochistan, Mir Quddus Bizenjo has expressed grief and sorrow over the tragic incident. In a statement issued after the incident, Mr. Bizenjo prayed that may Allah Almighty rest the departed souls in peace and give patience to the broken family members.
