He added that the previously disrupted sewerage system along major roads had also been fixed.<\/p>\n<p>Wahab recalled that Yusuf Goth faced severe damage during the 2020 rains, prompting visits by PPP leadership, including the Sindh chief minister. He said restoration efforts carried out since then ensured that the locality remained safe during the recent monsoon season.<\/p>\n<p>He further stated that the Karachi Municipal Corporation has started converting its pumping stations to solar power. Two stations in Malir and Gadap have already been solarised, providing water to 54 villages. Work is also underway on the LSR pumping station to address water shortages in Gulshan-e-Iqbal.<\/p>\n<p>Wahab said he is spending around Rs 24 crore monthly on KMC bills and has allocated funds in the budget for improvements in cemeteries.
