Lahore now the cleanest big city in Pakistan, and greener too. New imagery here!!

[N.Siddiqui]

If you can take the average of Indian airport passenger volume growth itself prove that the report is wrong as most of indian growth is double digit figure and airport like Surat growth is even 105%.

Motorways in Pakistan are approaching 2000 kms in length.

Check this massive road traffic between Lahore and Isb/Rwlp at Ravi interchange...this is a jam due to a PTI show. But road traffic is big here. Motorways are preferred over air for shorter distances.

 

[N.Siddiqui]

In pakistan the growth must be higher than India, since distance between international airport is larger and should attract more passengers to those big airports and having 200 million population+ large exp community.

M-2 and M-3 Motorway Pakistan, old pics, now traffic is high.

Problem of Pakistan is that its development and national security is in hands of politicians.

As it should be, may I remind you. If we wish to come out of security-state complex, then grooming politicians via elections is a must. There is no short-cut to this. If we had done things the right way, we would not be in this state after 70 years.

 

[N.Siddiqui]

One way it make sense, but india have lot of big airports and those passengers are split into various airports,let's say Mumbai, where you also have pune airport,ahmedabad aiport,baroda airports and many others.So the passengers will travel less to mumbai airport, even mumbai stands near 50 million.In pakistan the growth must be higher than India,

Daewoo and other intercity transporters have incorporated new luxury buses as seen here. More leg room more comfort.

Also new luxury buses added by Connect and others.

Look at the number of passengers in even Tier2 cities in India which many very less population vs karachi

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jinnah_International_Airport

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_the_busiest_airports_in_India

There are 10 cities is India, which carries more passengers than biggest city of pakistan.Neither can't compare the terminal facilities.

So now you want to name karachi city as a town or Indian towns(according to you) as city ?

@Mentee @RealNapster @maximuswarrior @ZeEa5KPul @Areesh

Look at the growth and many will double the passenger volume in 4 years.....

There will be another 4 cities other than 10 cities, will overtake lahore airport passenger volume, by few years from now, since the lahore airport takes almost 15-20 years to double the passenger volume-2.6 million in 2001
to 4.7 million in 2016.The lahore population is even though much much higher than those 4 indian cities.

Still don't know why big cities in pakistan does not have big passenger volume or growth in airports, even though lot of pakistani's are living outside country !
@KN-1 @Zibago @pakistanipower

Every year Delhi airport passenger growth is much more than that of total passenger volume of karachi airport.

The total passengers handling by Karachi+Lahore+Islamabad international airport is around 16 million, when Delhi international airport alone carrying 57 million !

what's the deal with this latest series of your obsession with Pak . Ku thak rhy ho ?

 

[N.Siddiqui]

Lahore has a breathtaking mix of Mughal, Colonial, modern and post modern architecture, not seen in Karachi and many other cities and these heritage, cultural buildings are preserved, unlike in many cities in the sub continent.

Karachi has got colonial era buildings put no Mughal architecture, some Mughal architecture near Thatta Sindh.


Random pics of Mughal, British Colonial buildings and modern Lahore....it is also about ownership, preservation and not just about development.

Kochi also homes to india's one of the largest amusement park, which karachi can't find such rides.

Kochi also have a big and beautiful stadium than karachi

Kochi was earlier called Kochin, isn't it....just like Chennai was called Madras, Mumbai Bombay, Kolkata is the new name....

and it is in Kerala state, the greenest with highest literacy rate in India, tropical as well.

 

[mkiyani]

we need to educate people, to not throw waste out side our home, roads and many other places.. why all Pakistanis when travel to other countries throw garbage in dustbin but in Pakistan they throw it on streets.. every one wants their house clean but they don't care about the all Pakistan streets ... fines should be put if caught throwing garbage outside any where..

 

[N.Siddiqui]

About 88.90 lakh (8.89 million) foreign tourists arrived in India in 2016 compared to 80.27 lakh (8.027 million)

India receives just about as many tourists as tiny Spain and France receives per year. France receives an average 80 million tourists every year, almost same numbers for Spain close to 80-75 million. France has a population of 60 million, India 1.35 billion. Spain pop. is about 50 million.

BTW Pakistan received 1.2 million tourists last year, 1 million as average for last few years, and just like India many of them were NRP's just like NRI visits India...Indian average is better here than Pakistan, albeit not much.

Local tourism is burgeoning in Pakistan. GB witnessed 0.7 million tourist from mainland Pakistan. KPK witnessed 10 lacs(1 million) tourists in summer season...

@DESERT FIGHTER @hussain0216 @Hell hound

Carlson Rezidor plans 120 hotels in India by 2020

http://www.business-standard.com/ar...0-hotels-in-india-by-2020-116080100010_1.html

India is largely a dump filled with 1.3 billion people most of whom are dirt poor

 

[N.Siddiqui]

India and China is having most number of metro cities+under construction in the world.

China has about 22,000 Kms of high speed railway, average speed here is above 220 km/hr, India has none, not a single km of high speed Railway.


Pakistan has about 2000 kms of Motorways, India has none, not a single km of Motorway. Engineering, quality of construction is different in Motorways and expressways.

Motorways has to come up with certain highway design specifications. India has expressways but their total length is not much, a 160 km patch of expressway between Mumbai and Pune, A small road between Delhi and Noida, a few more...not comparable to Motorway system of Pakistan.

At least tell me how many 5 star hotels in pakistan
