Nusair Siraj Teli, chairman of KCCI\u2019s Subcommittee on Upliftment of Karachi, stressed Karachi\u2019s economic significance, noting that it contributes over 67 percent to the national exchequer and nearly 90 percent to provincial revenue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Greater Karachi Regional Master Plan 2047 is expected to provide a structured roadmap for the metropolis, balancing infrastructure development, housing, traffic management, and urban sustainability as the city continues to grow rapidly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Karachi: The Sindh government is developing the Greater Karachi Regional Master Plan 2047 to address the city\u2019s growing challenges and guide long-term infrastructure and development priorities.
