story of an unplanned city and the monkey ruler !

If Imran was around in Akbar Badshah's time I am sure he would have helped plan Lahore city...thats if he wasnt busy doing dharna in Delhi

Itnay chalak na bano please...

No one here is a toddler that you are going to fool.

Why the heck did you mention SKMCH? Where did it come from? Where was the link?

Why not mention some other hospital, maybe i'll go and give the same donation to the donation box in Benazir Hospital or PIMS or somewhere...why SKMCH?

Because the common link is of Imran Khan and PTI. That's all there is.

THen you mentioned Tameer-e-School program. If it isn't related to PTI then pray tell me what? How? Why did it come into this thread?

This will be my last reply here...wanna discuss these projects, make another thread.

Meanwhile I'll keep on contributing to this wonderful first world project...Pakistan...Taraqqi ki rah par gamzan!

I am not chalak, never was, never would be. But i am skeptical of the behavior of "belaus" followers here....anyways...

I cant understand the utility of purple line . Airport is used more by the DHA , gulberg Model town and johar town residents , it must be connected to these areas rather than inner Lahore . All the members pls give your opinions.

yes there may be Airport users too of course on purple line . I believe that the purple line must be extended and must go further in opposite direction covering DHA, state life colony , sui gas colony and must pass through ferozpur road and must go through model town , township , johar town , expo center, and abdalian society , shaukat khanum and must end up at wapda town. This route needs the metro first and there would be a lot chunk of airport users in this areas as well.

agree but the only extension now we are seeing is Metro Bus route till Kala Shah Kaku from Shahdara + new Bridges on Ravi River

But the question is y? its like annoying to me , something is teasing me and i m asking myself why we need those metros and orange line trains,
some people here on PDF will say that i m a PTI fan boy , which i m , because of this type of thinking and spending PAKISTAN's people money on something which i think is not necessary at this time , many of N league supporters here will disagree with me, and they have the right to do,
we dont have clean water to drink, we dont have basic health facilities in our villages, floods ruins us every year, our education system is not up to the mark and we r doing something else.

Neither am i a PTI fanboy (I gave up on Imran Khan immediately after the election) nor do i support any other party, i understand that there are much more urgent requirements which need to be fulfilled rather then spending on these types of projects. However i still think there is nothing wrong with spending on development as well. Having to travel outside Pakistan a lot i know first hand how convenient these mass transit systems are for lower class people. Below are some of the benefits of having a mass transit system in Metropolitan cities like Lahore.

1. They do not benefit the upper class, they benefit lower and middle class people who need travel daily for
their jobs etc.
2. It helps the middle class people to save on fuel costs.
3. It reduces the need for cars thus reducing the traffic congestion.
4. It will reduce people's dependency on Rikshaws especially Quin Qui which are risks to Environment as well as
health.
5. Construction work of this scale will give jobs to thousands especially the labor class.

Mind you i despise PMLN and their thugs and i hate Shahbaz Sharif for ruining good projects started by others like Rescue 1122 however you have to appreciate his contribution towards building of infrastructure in Lahore.

sir
the question remains the same, no doubt these projects benefits the lower and middle class but some people like u dont understand, i wrote these things on another thread but the mods removed my post i dont know why, i m writing it again

have u seen the condition of GOVT hospitals in lahore or punjab
have u seen GOVT schools in lahore or Punjab
have u seen basic health units in Punjab
How much of Punjab or Pakistani People are drinking pure and safe water
How much of our college graduates are getting jobs
Floods every year
and u my brother are saying this is good, yes it is beneficial for some people but as a whole we dont need those projects

people are dying of Hepatitis and we dont even have a specialist state of the art liver transplant hospital in Pakistan
will u believe worlds second biggest Children hospital is under construction in Faisalabad (excellent Initiative by PMLN)
is only cost 5 billion rupees.and lahore metros cost was 45 billion. imagine had PMLN spent these metros money on hospitals how much of poor people of pakistan got benefit from it, or it could be spent on cean water projects in Punjab, that could have saved thousands of lives.

Alas,
