The early completion of this project within a shortest span of just one year has beaten the record of even its mother country Turkey where 42 km of Metro System took 3 years to complete.

I am sure Turkey must have implemented a proper Metro system, not a BRTS. They are calling a BRTS as Metro/Metro Bus in Pakistan.
A proper Metro system - both under and overground takes far longer to implement than a BRTS.
 
This cost $2.4 billion! You can get a much better BRT with $2.4 billion than this I would imagine. So how did SS fund this project that question still remains? I doubt he privately funded this.

Off course not, why would he fund it privately? The funds were distributed from the provincial treasury. Punjab is a rich province and after the passing of the 18th Amendment, resources at her disposal has considerably improved.

On topic: I live in Lahore. I am associated with the project to some extent, i will give it to SS that he has done some tremendous work for the city. The roads that have been built are simply top class. Although i will vote for PTI, i still have to acknowledge the good work done by SS. His scheme for getting in touch with the common folks regarding any public work through text messages has helped bring down the corruption level in Punjab. Without a doubt, Noon League is a much better party than these thieves(PPP). Governance in Punjab is indeed much better than that of other 3 provinces.
 
I am no supporter of PMl-N but i have respect for SS...whatever the motive behind this service,be it political or whatsover the ultimate benefit goes to the public...Political trend of this kind is fruitful for our nation rather than utilizing shaheed or mureed etc for politics...
