Lahore Should Be Developed Like Delhi: Pak Minister

[tarrar]

Sometimes they say Paris, sometimes they say New york & now they are saying Delhi, looks like the standard kept feeling, WTF. We have tons of idiots in Pakistan & unfortunately those idiots are running Pakistan.

 

[DMLA]

Well I do remember some members of Ajoka who had visited Delhi last year saying "Delhi is like Lahore, Islamabad and Karachi combined and then making the combined city much more modern". I do believe that with time, Pakistani cities will get better. Delhi receives huge budgetary funds each year which makes it a good city. To give an example, just the Delhi Jal Board (water department) budget last year was at $700 million.

 

[Al-zakir]

For Lahore city the examples to follow are Hong Kong, Los Anegeles, New York etc.

No, preserve old Lahore but improvement is on going process. High rises doesn't mean development. For that you have Karachi. You have something that no one has in SA.

Will do, and i only applied for the visa to Delhi due to time constraints. Inshallah next time i am going to go to Goa and Darjeeling. But on topic, where are my fellow Delhites? Suggestions please.

Have all of those, wide roads= LRR , spread out metro network= Rapid Bus Transit phase 1 27km long 90% complete (can later put train tracks on the route to make it a rail system), Phase 2 construction starts soon, flyovers= tons of them ranging from 1 to 8 Km long, the only things missing in Lahore are; a world class airport (current one is over crowded already) and tall skyscrapers.

No mate BRT cannot be compared to a 190 km long metro rail system as in Delhi
Even tier 3 Indian cities are getting monorail/BRT nowadays

In Road infra,Flyover and Buses...No South Asian city can be compared to Delhi

BTW i will like to see the developed side of delhi.

our minister should know lahore is the only city facing massive development in its history and his CM wants to make it istanbul of south asia and he comparing lahore with delhi

????

No You Cant Compare Islamabad with delhi!! islamabad was city build from scratch and planned to be capital, it doesnt have historical sites like delhi or Lahore and has less population!
Lahore Should be Compared with Delhi And Karachi With Mumbai Even though we dont have metro Trains!! Cities are comparable.

Not comparable....look at Airports,Skyscrapers,Bus transit...

Considering that our economy is totally crap and we are at war, our cities aren't doing that bad either, of course it will take time to catch upto Delhi/Mumbai but we are slowly getting there, btw Mumbai looks excellent in those pics.

Old Lahore is beautifully preserved but Lahore should get a decent skyline in near future.

why are pakistanis obsessed with delhi? pre partition days perhaps?

 

[Secur]

Well I have always heard something exactly the opposite about N.Delhi ... Watching Indians criticizing it a lot half the time ... Can any Indian shed light on recent developments ?

 

[A1Kaid]

Just goes to show the fools that run Pakistan and their line of thinking, complete goons. Rarely do they ever say anything intelligent. There is no point in even trying to defend such idiotic remarks.

Depends which area you are visiting.....Purani Delhi is a mess when it comes to traffic but got its own charm if you are into the bygone days.
