This just about covers almost all the major roads in Karachi. Imagine what Karachi will look like if all the green belts on these roads actually become green instead of the brown or grey that they are at present. The plant that is being planted in all these places is called button mangrove. It grows really fast and looks like it doesn’t require much water either as it is growing in places where normally only weeds used to grow.
Another interesting thing is that the long disputed “Kidney Park” a 62 acre empty space between has also been included in this project. Kidney Park is located amongst a densely populated and has been a target of land grabbers for quite some time and the current government was rumored to be in cohots with them. But it looks like either those rumors were false or the government had a change of heart, either way it is good for the citizens.
