May 16, 2021 Mere supply of water to the city will not quench Karachi’s thirst. The supply has to be equitable and safe I am a twitterholic. I use it to rant, to source information and to engage with interesting people. Of late, I have started posting what to most other people may seem mundane, but has supreme importance in my life. Like the day I received water in my pipeline. I have started noticing a pattern in such tweets. They occur once every 18-20 days. In between these days, I celebrate receiving a water tanker (that I pay for). In Karachi, the haves and the have-nots have all experienced the equaliser known as the water shortage. The difference between the two demographics being, of course, the ability to purchase the diminishing resource by one as opposed to the other segment of population. This being the case also for most other services and commodities given the inequitable system we live under.
