This is something many leaders overlook. If any project is actually helping common people daily, if a party derides this, people will start getting suspicious. A Metro Bus may have cost more to govt, but if it helps people daily while cutting their ticket expense no one can convince them that its bad for country. People tend to overlook corruption in a project if it gives them some comfort.
PTI needs to change its course and instead of deriding successful projects, it should work harder to force govt on backfoot. A Metro project or, an expressway will never be a weak point for any ruling dispensation.
Absolutely, PTI or infact any party which goes after successful developments projects just because its made by opposition party and make fun of it, is not doing any favours for the local voters. Yes point is to Expose Corruption, Expose nepotism in major projects, like for example AAKASH Tablet Indian politician
Kapil Sibal called a press conference. $35 Tablet Meant for the millions of students who can't even afford textbooks, the Aakash is supposed to be India's iPad knockoff. "There are some moments in history," Sibal said, taking a long pause, "that will be milestones recognized by future generations. This is one such moment." In reality AAKASH Tablet never made it to , it never worked and was stopped after 2012. Y give false hope to locals? who took all the money? Whereas look at all the good development happening in India, and then opposition starts targeting those projects which are helping common Indians....it never will go down well with Indian voters since these facilities and infrastructure projects have become part of their daily lives. This is same PTI Political mistake it keep on making especially in rich Punjab province.
In the same breath, Nandipur failed project by PMLN, Sugar Mills by PMLN, Ghost Danish Schools, PMLN leaders had no money and look how they made money, this is clear cut corrupt money...this has to be exposed, PTI needs to be careful and do cost-benefit analysis on which projects though corrupt, are they really benefiting the masses or not?
Once PTI in power, then can destroy PMLN and bring back all the looted money. Donot make all local masses against yourself, when the same schemes are giving some sort of relief to the people. Go after the big failed corrupt, fishes.
PTI will come to power, if does its homework carefully rather than blanket rejecting everything the opposition parties does.
