Addressing a press conference here, Khan asserted that there's massive corruption happening in the city and claimed that Karachi had been "abandoned" by political parties.

"Karachi is seen as a cash cow by the people in power," he said.

"Mafias prevail in this city. The tanker mafia for example citizens do not have access to water because of it... The Rangers have been posted in the city because political parties have ruined the police," he added.

Last week, Khan skipped voting in the Senate (Upper House of Pakistan Parliament) election.
