Lahore Should Be Developed Like Delhi: Pak Minister

[INDIC]

India dont like to spend money on roads...they are more interested in making fool proof submarines

Indians spend on railway, airports, roads everything. Do you have proper railways and airports in Pakistan. Instead of metro rail, Pakistan built metrobus

you mean this,

with

I told you New Delhi Railway station looks better than Lahore International Airport.

Look who is talking, the one whose nation has no idea of what a transit system is all about!!!!!#totally an out of the world concept.....

BTW for your kind information except from the Naxalised areas, the Indian transit system is fairing well in which states like Gujrat, Karnataka and Bihar are the prominent ones to quote....A top Planning Commission study, supported by World Bank, has said that Gujarat offers an example of international best practice in roads management. Authored by Clell Harral, Graham Smith and William DO Paterson, the study 'Lessons from International Experience: Road Asset Management' provides guidelines to the National Transport Development Policy Committee of Planning Commission on how reforms in Gujarat in the roads sector come closer to international standards for other states and developing countries to follow.

An Indian journalist's perspective of Pakistani roads:



Affluenza: With love from across the border - The Hindu

Before 2000, the economy of Pakistan was better than India's.But now India is catching up very fast..In 5 years, your roads will be nowhere near India's..

We have 4 operational metros & 7 more under construction..

Couldn't the Minister have found a better example? Besides this is old news from some deranged minister in Zaradari's cabinet whose totally irrelevant and no longer in government. Good riddance.

Are the Indian expressways controlled-access and fenced like the Pakistan Motorway network? (just a question, not a taunt).

Yes they are

 

[Brahmos_2]

Operational: 633 km (M1, M2 and M3)
Under-Construction: 1,261 km (M4, M8 and M9)
Planned: Approximately 1,000 km (M5, M6, M7, etc.)

These are the stats for Motorways, which do not include Expressways and National Highways. Expressways are a notch above National Highways and a notch below Motorways. Lahore Ring Road, for example, is an Expressway.

India currently have 1,208 km of existing expressways & 3402 Km under construction..

Delhi is still not a bad example,and it almost have same problems as Pakistan-read corruption and inefficient politicians

We are going to spend $1 trillion on infrastructure for next five years.

So, in other words, India doesn't have anything like Pakistan's motorways, which are inter-city, controlled access and fenced motorways.

Yamuna Expressway

Delhi-Gurgaon

 

[Shabaz Sharif]

Indian roads are **** poor compared to Pakistan, thats what Indian who visited Pakistan say not us.

Also, until Delhi's T3 came along, there was not a single airport in India that could compare to Lahore and Karachi's airports. Now we have the New Islamabad International Airport coming up.

You're wrong,Most of Indian cities-tier1,tier2 and tier3 cities in India have modern glass and steel airports.

 

[djsjs]

Yes, you have any problem with that?

are they free or have to pay?

 

[INDIC]

Your Karachi is the largest city in the world without a mass transit system....

Karachi International Airport.

New Delhi Railway Station

Karachi Railway Station.

You're wrong,Most of Indian cities-tier1,tier2 and tier3 cities in India have modern glass and steel airports.

yeah right,here is our 8-12 lane+service lane Hyderabad outer ring road,compare with your 4-6 lane 45 km long not access controlled Lahore one

Even Mysore a tier 3 Indian city have 45 km long 6 lane ring road.....

are they free or have to pay?

@shan annd @SMC are fooling around ..In India two&three wheelers are not allowed on expressways here,unlike some one's access controlled Lahore ring road,where you can see two wheelers,bicycles and three wheeled motorbike rickshaws.Expressways are either fenced or grade seperated,and there are many other fenced high ways too.

Yes you'll have to pay toll.

 

[DARIUS]

Yes, you have any problem with that?

No he just wanted to know that would it be at all plausible that on his next visit to India he might collide into a so called freely roaming cow on a highway while driving and then have the dead cow on the hooves then and there. . . .But obviously he is going to cook it first on his hot fuming car bonnet!!

Jinay lahore nai wekhya O jamya E nai.and I stand by it completely!

Not saying this bcos I'm lahori,but I challenge any1 to visit lahore and compare with the city of your choice,there is nothing like lahore in the world it's pure.5 start hotels to brand name shoppes. lived in U.S most of my life seen just about every North American city I must say I was taken by surprise how much development was done by Sabaz sharif in last 5 years gave everything the city wanted
