This statement was made by Ejaz in response to a question posed to her by a TV show host. Pakistani musician and social activist Shahzad Roy, known for his efforts to help the public, has also joined hands to help the people of Karachi. Roy explained that he used this word to describe Karachi because it is his personal opinion, and the city holds a special place in his heart.

Ejaz expressed her frustration at the current state of Karachi, urging the concerned authorities to take concrete steps to improve the city’s infrastructure, particularly the roads.
