Actually that was not correct answer to the question of the surveyor but since they did not know English language they asked them in Cutchhi language as to what they said(in Kutchhi language when we ask some what did he say we use word KROCHAY) The surveyor thought that they are replying to their question and wrote the name of Karachi as KROCHAY, As such the old name of Karachi is actually KROCHAY.
