How can you say that its wastage of money? Imagine the amount of money saved interms of low Petrol and Diesel consumption . It will also improve the quality of life of low to middle income class people. Needless to mention improvement in Lahore traffic flow.

quality life of middle class will only be improved by providing basic facilities , best education ,best medical facilities , peace and security which unfortunately is lacking in our country. this is a sad state of affair that we are hailing this orange line but our patients are compel to go india for better treatment. isnt it embarrassing? we havent given our population basic civil sense , these people will sabotage this metro train in event of any random protest, the country is bankrupt and building such project on loan from foreign banks add more shame to current state of affairs of the country. lahore is not that large city metro buss was enough , thier wasnt any need for orange line project at all.

Its easy to complain about everything which you are doing very well. Most of the cities around the globe have far lesser population than Lahore and have Metro or subway rail system. Number of patients going to India are negligible. In the next few years nobody will goto India , as Pakistan has developed number of its own major hospitals, Lahore Kidney and Liver transplant system is nearing completion.
You mentioned country is bankrupt. I dont know which country are you talking about. All the things you mentioned above are relative, I dont know what u mean by "best education" , "best medical facilities". I would suggest you do the homework before tagging me in your posts.
Peace.

i am not complaining, i was just giving my view point which is my birth right, apart from it its not about population , its about need , do we really need orange line right now? when country economy is in poor condition? about hospitals you mentioned are they sufficient enough? how many of them are affordable to lower middle class and poor of country? even india established its medical system before they focused on metros. our country need alot to improve education system. how many govt schools functioning properly in ur locality?if u think orange line is the source of progress and then i feel sorry for your ignorance.
and last i dont need any homework i am middle class pakistani and i know the ground realities and am entitled to have my opinion. did not mean to offend any one just gave my view

Work on OLMT’s four stations near completion

LAHORE: The first four stations of the Lahore Orange Line Metro Train (OLMT) project have reached near completion as majority of the development work has been completed.

At least 92% development work on Dera Gujjran metro train station, 96.5% on Islam Park, 95.6% on Salamatpura and 94.61% work on Mahmood Booti have been finalised.

Punjab Chief Minister’s Adviser and OLMT Steering Committee Chairperson Khawaja Ahmad Hassaan said on Wednesday that all possible measures were being taken to complete these stations as early as possible.

Earlier, project’s weekly progress review meeting was held.

The officials said that more than 85% civil works of the project have been completed, besides 46% electrical and mechanical works, including construction of rail track near Gulabi Bagh and Buddhu’s Tomb where development works remained suspended for around 22 months owing to restraining order by the court.

National Engineering Services Pakistan (NESPAK) General Manager Salman Hafeez highlighted that progress of work on package-I (from Dera Gujjaran, G.T.Road to Chouburji) was 89.92%, on package-II (from Choburji to Ali Town) was 78.43%, on depot near Dera Gujran was 86.31% while on stabling yard near Ali Town 87.62% work had been completed.
