Chief Minister Sindh Qaim Ali Shah forgot Karachi’s population during the high level meeting, presided over by Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif. The meeting hall burst into laughter as Qaim Ali Shah told the Prime Minister that Karachi’s population is 220 million.
The meeting was being held at Governor House Karachi. CM Sindh corrected the figure when Prime Minister told him that population of the entire country was about 180 million.
President Karachi Chamber of Commerce and Industries (KCCI) demanded Karachi to be handed over to the Army on this occasion.
