A Tale of an Orphan Mega City

Wajid W

Urbanisation is a challenged faced all over the world as the cities have this charismatic economical horizons to attract people from all over the world, Karachi is one of among them it has a population of 25 million people with a density of 6000 people per m2. In this article I tried to explain the ethnical composition of the city as well trembling infrastructure of the city. The various communities are living without any cooperation, Religious, Ethnical and linguistic divide exist there, and political tug of war is merely for holding it economical bloodline. So keeping the increasing population of the city and the land in analysis I tried to visualise the future scenarios in three phases as I have the data of population in a year 2005, from that particular data I projected current situation of 2016 and predicted the future in 2050. As the population is inconsistent it can be increased or decreased but the land is fixed. Keeping these phenomena in my analysis I used ArcGIs software to visualise the previous, current and future situation.
