Alarming increase in expenses of Orange Line project revealed

[Delnavaz B]

Apart from the Rs 165 billion being provided by China, the extra Rs 92 billion shall be spent from the funds of various other developmental projects of the province. During the previous fiscal year, a deduction of 23% was made in the funds of the agricultural sector as the funds obtained from this end were utilised in the Metro bus project.

According to the investigation carried out by Dunya News, instead of the one-line budget of the Metro train, the project was being funded through various ministries including that of finance, transportation, Information Technology (IT), environment, planning and development, Lahore Development Authority (LDA) and the Orange Line authority.

The document revealed that Rs 19.80 billion were spent on the procurement of land and for compensating those affected by the project. Rs 10 billion were spent on the removal of electricity poles and the breaking of roads along with serving as compensation for damage caused to infrastructure.

Rs 20 billion were spent as taxes over the usage of the machinery being utilised in the project and for the training of the labourers along with serving as social security and plantation of trees along the track of the train and various other expenses, according to the document.

It has been mentioned in the document that Rs 9.84 billion would be spent as compensation to the damage caused to historical sites, including Shalamar Gardens, Chauburji and 12 other structures, during the construction of the project.

Since i was told about Saif ur Rehman getting those CPEC contracts by @notorious_eagle , i have given all hope .

That is just being blunt and arrogant about the crimes you are committing, they do not even care anymore about hiding there corruptions. The worst part is that there will be people even justifying that or whose response to this will be" What have PTI and Imran Khan done" or "It will all be cleared in today's election". Such is our narrow mind approach! What you can expect in such environment? clean fair and accountable projects? I am sorry to say this but you are stupid if you think so!

I think Lahore should be made a province. They get their share of national income whatever they do with it, won't affect other areas.

They have used the funds from different important revenue generating sectors for a useless orange line train. This is how you rob a nation. Something so materialistic and simply worthless for a hungry stomach.

and who is going to do that? those who cite french or irani revolutions should consider one thing: Iranis and French are one nation, ours unfortunately is divided along ethnic and sectarian lines, and those lines run so deep that no one is willing to band together for common good.
