What's going on here? Did I miss an internet world war?

Both cities are awesome, but I think infrastructure wise(transportation mainly), Delhi has got a bit of a head start in the recent times. Hope Lahore Metro starts soon.

I would definitely agree with this statement. Delhi has made a lot of progress in recent times, Lahore hasn't as much, but still made plenty. But if I remember correctly, it was Pakistan that first started the 8 lane motorways in the region, in 1997 I believe, when they built the M-2 from Lahore to Islamabad. In recent times, Delhi being the capital city of India has improved its infrastructure, whereas Pakistan has concentrated on improving the infrastructure of Islamabad, Karachi & other cities. There is no harm in saying Delhi has better infrastructure than Lahore today, whereas there are some other aspects in which Lahore excels Delhi. I've been to both Lahore & Delhi, & I would feel that on a whole, inside the city, the roads in Lahore are wider than the ones in Delhi. There are a few other aspects as well that can be discussed. Lahore isn't too far away, & with the metro project coming along, I can see Lahore & Delhi 'becoming even more similar'. I don't see any of this as a negative thing, & both India & Pakistan must be praised for the work they've done in developing these cities.
