Is K-IV a pipe dream?
The K-IV project, a water supply scheme for Karachi first proposed in 2006, remains unfinished despite approval in 2014. Costs have risen sevenfold to Rs171 billion, with repeated delays, funding issues, and political interference. The latest completion deadline is December 2028, but experts predict further delays.
