What’s with ‘engreJ’? Are you an Indian? The term is ‘angreZ’.
You need to learn to stay calm. Getting personal and calling others liars shows the narrow-mindedness and lack of morality. I do not like to get personal with others and expect the same from others regarding me.
You called me a liar for saying that bus transporters were involved in obliteration of KCR. But actually the same conclusion has been reached by different people. Now you can disagree if possible, but can’t call me a liar. You need to apologize to me for getting personal. That is, if you are decent man instead of a nationalist bigot.
Involving MQM in everything just shows where you are coming from. Sounds like Qadir Magsi. Not surprising. But the prejudice is unfortunate.
Bus transporters were one of the reasons KCR was obliterated. Obviously there was corruption and mismanagement involved, just like all other Pakistani institutes. The explanation you gave about disability to expand tracks might be one of those reasons. But not the main one.
KCR was closed in 1999. How come British stopped working only in 1999?
Here are some references:

It is believed that an effective circular railway system could solve the problem. However, analysts consider the transport mafia responsible for creating hurdles in the revival of the circular railway system.

Is transporters mafia behind closure of trains?
An expert on railway system expressed his fear that the truckers mafia and the transport mafia may be behind the move.
He said it was his considered opinion based on history that transport mafia had played a role in shutting down Karachi circular railway and Muhammad Ali tram Company .
These two services were providing cheap and efficient mode of transportation but citys transport mafia was so strong that it allegedly bribe the policy makers and succeeded in the closing down of these two services.
Transporters behave very much in mafia fashion. They use strong arm tactics, huge bribe for their own benefit to mint money from the suffering citizens. Even the government is helpless before the transport mafia.
Mass Transit in Karachi | youthonline :: Empowering Change
thanks to the transport mafia which comprises of those who run minibuses, wagons, coaches and buses. This mafia, as a result of its manipulative and scheming ploys, has succeeded in obliterating major transportation projects like Karachi Circular Railways, tramways and green bus project, over the years.There was a time when Karachi Circular Railway (KCR) was at its peak, 104 trains ran daily, 90 on main tracks and 14 on loop line. Nearly 3 lac commuters traveled on the KCR everyday. But after 1994, only one train ran on loop line and in 1999 KCR operations were completely discontinued. Karachi tramway is a story not different from that of KCR. In 1975, the 90 year old tram network was closed down as a result of mismanagement and ill-planning.
As usual load of crape and lies. Who is the railway expert, perhaps you?

Here are pearls of wisdom from another one of this great PPP stalwart.
His logic: If Saudi and Afghanistan do not have railway then why should Pakistan have one?
I heard that when Bilour was anointed to be railway minister by PPP then the transporters were found singing this: “sayyan bhaye kotwaal, ab dar kaahe ka?”
Again lie. He belongs to ANP not PPP. Who can beat these pearls of wisdom of your pir of landan sharif

*Bilour is famous for running porn cinemas in Peshawar and has been so for decades. He and his party are also alleged to get generous gifts from India for keeping up resistance against building of Kalabagh dam. Further, he is the own of bus transport companies and hence is dead against railways. *
