Rangers to launch FM radio station in Karachi
The Pakistan Rangers are introducing an FM radio station to facilitate direct communication with the citizens of Karachi. This initiative aims to improve law and order by allowing citizens to lodge complaints more easily.

KARACHI: Pakistan Rangers have decided to launch an FM radio station in Karachi to directly communicate with citizens to improve law and order in the metropolis. The main purpose (of the radio station) is to help citizens lodge complaints with the paramilitary force, Voice of Journalists reported.
