The monsoon season has hit Pakistan. While most parts of Pakistan enjoy the good weather, Karachi bleeds. The deteriorating situation in Karachi has been a constant since the past twenty years and in the recent months it has further debilitated to the point where the value of life for the common man has become virtually non-existent. It is a curious title to choose, knowing that in early July more than 110 people perished in just five days in Karachi, and countless others were either forced to flee their homes, or still remain trapped in them. Consider further that it was but part of a recurrent pattern, and one is bound to question that have there ever been any gains to preserve and possibly build on.
