Quetta-Karachi route:

HQ City Report

QYETTA: The office bearers of Markazi Anjuman Tajran Balochistan have demanded of the Prime Minister, Mian Muhammad Nawaz Sharif and Federal Minister for Railways, Khawaja Saad Rafiq to run a non-stop passenger train from Quetta to Karachi.
In a joint statement issued here, the President of the Anjuman Tajran, Abdul Rahim Kakar, Hazrat Ali Achakzai, Allah Dad Tareen, Taj Agha, Ibrahim Kasi and others pointed out that hundreds of thousands people from Balochistan work in Karachi and hundreds of people belonging to different ethnic groups travel from Quetta to Karachi every day. After the tragic incident of May 29, the people are concerned about their security, they said. They don’t think that the bus route of Quetta-Karachi is safe for them, so under the given situation, we demand that a non-stop train should be run between Balochistan and Sindh capital cities to ensure safe journey for the travelers, the traders’ leaders maintained.
