ARY Network CEO Salman Iqbal has made headlines with his strong statement in support of Karachi. While addressing the public, he said that Karachi has never asked for anything and has always contributed to Pakistan. To highlight this belief, he announced that he is ready to lend Rs 500 crore to help the city.
Salman Iqbal said Karachi plays a major role in the country’s economy and generates a large share of national revenue, yet it continues to face serious problems.
He pointed out issues such as poor infrastructure, water shortages, and weak civic services, which have affected the daily lives of residents. His statement reflected frustration over the lack of attention given to the city despite its importance.
The announcement quickly drew public attention and sparked debate on social media. Many people appreciated his gesture and saw it as a bold reminder of Karachi’s value to the country. Others questioned whether private individuals should step in when government responsibility is involved.
Salman Iqbal’s remarks have once again brought focus to Karachi’s long-standing challenges and the need for serious action to improve governance and development in the city.
