Karachi Parking Fees Abolished: Major Public Relief by Sindh Government

In a landmark decision aimed at offering public relief, the Sindh government has officially abolished parking fees on all roads across Karachi. A formal notification has been issued, halting the collection of parking charges in all 25 towns of the city.

Under the new regulation, parking fees will now only apply in designated areas such as approved plazas, plots, or council-managed spaces. The move comes following directives from Sindh Chief Minister Murad Ali Shah, who initiated an aggressive campaign through the Local Government Department to eliminate illegal fee collections.

Strict Action Against Unauthorized Parking Fee Collection

The notification clearly states that only the Karachi Metropolitan Corporation (KMC) has the authority to collect parking charges, and even then, only at pre-approved locations. All other local bodies, including Town Municipal Corporations (TMCs), have been instructed to immediately stop any ongoing fee collections on public roads.

To ensure compliance, Municipal Commissioners across all towns have received directives to monitor and enforce the order. Strict legal action will be taken against individuals or organizations violating the rule or attempting to collect unauthorized parking fees.

A Move Toward Transparent Urban Governance

Mayor Karachi Murtaza Wahab welcomed the decision, emphasizing that no institution is now allowed to demand roadside parking charges. He reiterated the city’s commitment to improving transparency and reducing everyday public burdens.

This latest measure follows a previously enforced ban on parking fees on KMC-controlled roads, but now extends the relief to all town-level streets. Citizens across Karachi are expected to benefit as the city pushes forward with reforms in urban mobility and governance.
