Karachi, Pakistan’s largest city, has long been shaped by ethnic tensions. In recent years, the dynamics have shifted. Karachi’s political landscape has become more fragmented, with new political forces like Imran Khan’s PTI gaining traction and eroding traditional ethnic lines. Ethnic identities in Karachi are becoming more fluid, as younger generations focus on urban issueslike governance and economic development.
For Karachi to move forward, addressing issues such as economic disparity, inclusive governance, and political decentralisation is essential. Karachi can overcome its historical divide and focus on its shared future as a diverse, global metropolis.
