Move cantonments out of town and rename Abbotabad...
150 years back when Karachi was a sleeping fishing village these cantonments were fine not any more... City has grown all around it... inconvenience for people and the army/navy and airforce all...Now Karachi is a mega polis sprawling hundreds of square miles. The population is about 20 million. The need to move cantonments out of towns can hardly more emphasised. The cantonments are every where and large tracts are occupied. While it is inconvenient for the forces it is also most inconvenient for the people. They can very easily be moved at least 50 km away from the city North West of Karachi. Vast empty areas are available.
And these areas must not be made concrete jungles but developed into green belts, forests and parks as we see in the West right in the middle of the city. Some parts can be developed though for civilians but by the best town planner in the world invited to compete and bid. Lets make this city unique and one of the best in the world.
Army, Navy and Air Force would also be safe in a lot better place.

Will write in detail later Inshallah.
