The Karachi Metropolitan Corporation’s (KMC) Jubilee Market, which had been constructed over a storm water drain in District South’s Garden locality, caved in on Thursday. According to the KMC’s Senior Director (Municipal) SM Taha, the market had been constructed over the Soldier Bazaar Nullah.
Gas pressure during the clearing of the drain is believed to have caused the collapse of the market. Fortunately, no loss of life occurred in the incident, but the goods inside the shops were destroyed.
The market was built right in front of the Jubilee Cinema several decades ago, because of which the Soldier Bazaar drain could not be cleared for years. A few days ago, two of the shops at the market had been razed to clear the nala.

IT was 1:30 in the morning on June 24, 2021. The tide was low and the moon was full. Hundreds of people were sleeping in their beds in Champlain Towers South. The 12-storey building faced the ocean in Surfside, a strip of reclaimed land off the Atlantic coast in Florida that is dotted with similar high-rise dwellings. Witnesses say that a rumble was heard before the actual collapse. The middle of the building fell first and then in 30 seconds, moments which must have been excruciating for those awoken by the crash in the portion left standing. Then another portion of the building collapsed. If those sleeping in the part that fell died without realising the horror of the moment, those in the part that fell down next would have known just what was happening.
