Viper come to the point and stop fluffing. The cost of the project is too high and secondly it was started by PPP. Your rhetorics have no basis. Go sell them to some duff.
1- Metro bus system of Lahore is a big scam as every year 2 billion rupees has to be paid from the provincial exchequer to keep it running.
2- Laptop scheme is nothing but just another commission earning eyewash.
3- Youth loan scheme has flopped badly.
4- Yellow taxi scheme has flopped badly, where are they ?
5- Sasti roti scheme has evaporated in thin air.
6- Pak-China economic corridor was initiated by PPP government. Nawaz league mad a controversy out of it and tried to change the already arranged route. Shame on them as even he Chines government has refused to oblige to the alternative route proposed by this flop Nawaz government.
Do you have proofs for all the 6 accusations above??? Common man, enlighten me. Your Zardari was the most corrupted leader. There are witnesses and accounts all the way to Switzerland and the UK for him. Can you show similar "REAL" proofs on the 6 items defined above?
The biggest fooling around of federal govt. was to give clean chit to Asif ali Zardari and Yosef reza gilani... from corruption cases.
That was actually given by the constitution and majority of the countries have it, same thing with Musharraff, he did corruption but gotten away with it. The Presidents have legal protection guaranteed by the constitution. Don't blame the current government for it.
If people start to believe your crap, then it would seem like the current government caused the Earth Quake in Pakistan too. Many people have diarrhea every month because of the current government. The Clouds don't go and the Sun doesn't come out because of the current government!! This is the crap we read on here from people, low quality BS, never thankful for anything.
Rs2b subsidy on metro bus as CM refuses fare hike
THE Punjab government has allocated Rs 2 billion hefty amount for Metro Bus subsidy while Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif has refused to increase its fare.
The provincial government has allocated Rs one billion for transport sector subsidy during the ongoing fiscal year which was reduced to 248.2 million in the revised estimates. Out of Rs 248.2 million, almost Rs 100 million was given to Metro Bus as subsidy.
This year the provincial government has increased the subsidy for the transport sector to Rs 3 billion registering more 270 percent increase from the last year. According to the officials, if compared to the past year, the government has increased Rs 2 billion subsidy on the transport sector. Only Metro Bus System (MBS) is a mega transport sector project which is executed during ongoing fiscal year. It means the government has allocated Rs 2 billion subsidy for MBS alone while rest of the transport sector will get Rs one billion subsidy. On the other hand, during the ongoing fiscal year, out of Rs 248.2 million revised estimated subsidy of transport sector, almost Rs 100 million was disbursed through MBS which shows that the MBS will again get major chunk of the subsidy.

PM’s youth loan scheme hits snags
ISLAMABAD: The Prime Minister’s youth loan scheme has virtually been dumped by the National Bank of Pakistan (NBP) authorities as the bank has failed to disburse the loan amount to the successful applicants despite passage of more than a month while the second balloting has also been postponed.
A well-placed source in the NBP told The News that the bank authorities still are reluctant to continue with this scheme as this would bring financial disaster to the bank if it continues.When contacted Bank’s spokesman Syed Ibn-e-Hasan refused to comment on the issue saying, “I have not received any information from the relevant authorities therefore I cannot not comment on the issue.”
Speaking about the future of this scheme the source informed that the seriousness of the bank authorities could only be checked that the bank’s credit committee approved the scheme almost after two months of the starting of this scheme.
“Meaning by that the previous management of the bank was not ready to approve the scheme and everyone was reluctant because of the nature of the programme. The members of the credit committee had earlier given no approval to this scheme; however, now it has been asked to approve the programme,” the source informed.
The bank was sent a query last week however despite passage of almost a week no response came from the bank officials. The scheme was launched in December 2013 but the bank’s credit committee approved the scheme in February 2014 and this has been confirmed by the bank’s management in response to a query sent to it earlier in the month of March 2014.
The source further informed that the loan disbursement among the successful candidates could further take another month or so. Not only this, but the bank management has also reduced the amount ten times than they actually sought for starting their business. A person who sought Rs2 million’s loan has been approved only Rs0.25 million, the source said.
The second balloting was scheduled on first week of April 2014 however it has been postponed as the process of disbursing loan among successful candidates of first balloting has not been finalised and not a single applicant has received loan amount.
For the second balloting the bank has processed only 2800 applications uptil now however the 80 member staff which was working on the processing of the scheme has been sent back to their branches, informed the source.
The bank authorities are also not sure about making the loan scheme under Islamic banking system as no one either from the government side or from the bank has not announced about the issue. The bank authorities claimed that they have received no instructions from the government whether to disburse the loan through Islamic banking system or through normal banking system.
The data center set up particularly for this program on Bank’s branch situated on Tariq Road Karachi has been winded up while the bank is no more processing further applications for this loan scheme, informed the source.
It is pertinent to mention here that more than 400 bank staffers were working on this program throughout the country while 80 staffers were deployed in the data center specially established for Prime Minister’s Youth Loan Scheme on Tariq Road Karachi which has been closed.
The official further informed that besides the Prime Minister’s Youth Loan Scheme, the bank is also involved in its own indigenous loaning scheme and the advance salaries loan scheme is the top most and successful scheme. However due to the PM youth loan scheme all other programs of the bank are being badly affected resulting in the poor performance of the bank.
The official informed that just to make this programme successful the bank’s future has been put on stake as the bank is getting only 16 per cent markup i.e. 8 per cent from the loan seeker and 8 per cent from the government. On the other hand, the bank is already getting 19 per cent mark up from its all loan schemes including the top most and advance salary programme.

You blaming Musharraf for corruption.... is not a crap of low quality!!!!!!!!
While Mr.10% is a saint.... can be classified as BS of high quality!!!
Be mindful of the fact, that cases on Asif Ali Zardari, were brought up by Nawaz Sharif... and if they are closed by him following democratic pact, London. Than there has to be explanation for this circus, causing billions to national exchequer.
Do you have proofs for all the 6 accusations above??? Common man, enlighten me. Your Zardari was the most corrupted leader. There are witnesses and accounts all the way to Switzerland and the UK for him. Can you show similar "REAL" proofs on the 6 items defined above?
Everything is on record.
And if Zardari was corrupt then why doesn't the current government get him and put him in jail ?
