Karachi shut down as MQM observes 'Black Day'

MQM in a press conference had announced that 26th October will be observed as Black Day to protest against the statements given by the opposition leader.

Commercial centres will remain closed whereas public transport is off the roads in many parts of Sindh including Karachi and Hyderabad which is causing problems for the citizens.
