New Karachi Town (Urdu: نیو کراچی ٹاؤن) lies in the northern part of the city Gulberg Town. It was formed when katchi abadis were resettled following the 1958 coup d'état. In 2001 it was subdivided into 13 union councils. The town system was disbanded in 2011,[1] and New Karachi Town was re-organized as part of Karachi Central District in 2015.
New Karachi is in the northern part of Karachi, Pakistan, located between the Lyari River, the Manghopir Hills and two major roads – Surjani Road to the north and Shahrah-e-Zahid Hussain to the south. To the north and west is Gadap Town, and to the south lie the towns of Gulberg Town and North Nazimabad Town. The population of New Karachi Town was estimated to be more than 680,000 at the 1998 census.[citation needed]
After the 1958 Pakistani coup d'état, the military decided to forcibly resettle the katchi abadis of Karachi into freshly created townships such as New Karachi.[2] The federal government under the ruling of Pervez Musharraf, who seized power in a 1999 coup d'etat, introduced local government reforms in the year 2000, which eliminated the previous "third tier of government" (administrative divisions) and replaced it with the fourth tier (districts). The effect in Karachi was the dissolution of the former Karachi Division in 2001, and the merging of its five districts to form a new Karachi City-District with eighteen autonomous constituent towns including New Karachi Town. In 2011, the system was disbanded but remained in place for bureaucratic administration until 2015, when the Karachi Metropolitan Corporation system was re-introduced. In 2015, New Karachi Town was re-organized as part of Karachi Central district.
