\nHe observed \u201c there is money, there are men then why all the projects were not completed within a year. In a year so much large roads are constructed.
\nThe authorities told the court orange line will be made operational next year.
\nCJP remarked why it cannot be made operational this month. You people don\u2019t make payments and the contractors leave and go away. Go to Nazim Abad, no work is being done therein. Every time some one is changed.
\nHe remarked\u201d you make the people see dreams and their life has become miserable. Dust is lying. These all projects are heaps of dust and they will collapse.
\nHe observed \u201c people are dying and you people are playing flute. This chngchi has started again.
\nHe remarked \u201c people are working in Karachi. They know what about Karachi. They don\u2019t work unless the danda (stick) comes from above. How many flyovers have been built they all will collapse. Keemari bridge is going to collapse within five years. Then Keemari connection with Karachi will be sundered.

\nCJP remarked nothing is running. There is no system of transport. Buses of 1955 are running in the city.
\nHe remarked \u201c these buses will run when I go to home and my associates will also go home. You people don\u2019t complete the work in 10 years which needs to be completed within 6 months.
\nAG Sindh said this is being done due to some officers. Justice Sajjad Ali Shah remarked give report about how many buildings have been built illegally in Nazim Abad. AG Sindh said report is there.
