Pakistan is suffering due to frcition between PPP and PMl-N

Read this news today in Daily Jang :

I feel complete sympathy with Punjab government on this issue.PPP government is'nt clearing the machinery due to which a loss of some 8.5 billion rs. is expected to Punjab Government,rather to country.Since 18th ammendment had given the right of power generation to the provinces,Punjab Government had determined to setup to projects of hydral energy generation but these projects have'nt started yet due to the clashes between PML-N and PPP.


Ministry of IT's corruption unveiled

Read this news today morning :
There's nothing much to comment on this news since it is concerned with a party whose ministers consider it hteri legal right to commit corruption.Nevertheless,this corruption is much less than Shehbaz Shareef's corruption in laptoip scheme which is suspected to be as big as 15-17 billion rupees

Corruption-Can you smell it?

Earlier i had vowed to bring forward the alleged corrutpion of Punjab Government.Here i am, with statistics:


1- 35 Billion Rupees were specified for Yellow Cab scheme in 2010-2011.Estimating a Yellow cab to be of 0.5 million rs. (Although the yellow cabs are much cheaper than that because their body is of very light and sub-standard material),number of Yellow cabs amounts to 70,000 with the specified money.If we accept that the money had been spent fully transparently and that each district of Punjab was given equal quota,there should be at least 2000 yellow cabs in Lahore.But i bet you will not notice more than 200-300 yellow cabs in Lahore






2-He claimed that he had distributed 1 lakh laptops last year and the fund specified for the laptops was told to be 22 billion rs.
Although 1 lakh seems a very exeggerated figure,yet let us accept it true for the analysis.The laptops which were distributed were worth  not more than 25,000 rs.This means that in actual he had spent 2.5 billion on laptops.Even if we double the cost of a single laptop,the overall expenditure amounts to 5 billion rs.Where did the rest 16-17 billion rs. go?



3- Rapid Bus project was initially estimated to be completed with a budget of some 19 billions but uptill now it has consumed 27 billions ,apparently due to poor planning but one can smell corruption in it as well.It is feared to take 8 billion more until its completion thus consuming almost 25% budget of Punjab
Moreover the rumours  are that Shareefs are consuming the steel from their foundaries and mills open heartedly as previously it was rusting in their store houses.


Conclusion
Shehbaz Shareef is spending just a fraction of resources on the public of Punjab.His statistics were completely misleading and the more serious thing is that neither PPP,nor PTI is unveiling his corruption in Talkshows.Nor they have taken this matter to court.

An improved and better Lahore

This Eid ul Adha we felt as if it was'nt Eid Ul Adha.Why? because whenever we stepped out of our houses during 3 days of Eid we did'nt find waste of animals on the roads or anywhere neither did the smell bothered our nostrils.Indeed the credit goes to Shehbaz Shareef that he managed to keep the city clean.He had distributed millions of plastic bags to put waste and hundreds of trucks of LWMC paid duty during those 3 days.LWMC served an awesome job indeed.

the performance of Al Bayrak and LWMC is satisfacory during casual routine days as well.They visit towns and streets on regular basis and one can clearly feel the difference between what Lahore used to be some 3 years ago and what Lahore is at present.

I wish the same development would have taken place in whole Province and then whole country.Investing about half of the total budget on just one district causes the sentiments of deprivation to rise in other districts.Shehbaz Sahreef should now realize this reality.

Rapid Bus Project is supposed to consume about 35-40 billion rupees whereas the total budget of Punjab is about 150 billion.Why should other districts suffer?PML-N supporters keep beating the trumpet that we built motorway.Surely they did,but wear and tear has started in it i.e just 15 years after its completion.PML-N could'nt repair G.T Road in any of its government and no development has been done in other districts and cities of Punjab other than Lahore.

As far as literacy is concerned ,Shehbaz Shareef's vision is that by building 5-6 Danish Schools he is increasing literacy rate but what about those 1700 schools which have been closed?Who will acount for them/Schools have now turned into marriage centres.Principals are involved in corruption but it does'nt affect shehbaz Shareef becasue his education minister Mujtaba Shuja Ur Rehman is just a puppet.

Corruption by PPSC,FPSC and NTS

Many great steps were taken in Musharraf's government including the esatblishment of University of Health Sciences,establishment of NTS and many many more.Above all recruitments in his government were transparent.Politicians did'nt affect recruitments in his era.

Although he had established NTS with a good will,it turned into evil after him.NTS in start just conducted NAT and GAT etc only but later it began to expand.Now-a-days the situatiuon is that NTS conducts  the test for almost 50% of government jobs.Not only government jobs,but NTS has also won the confidence of private companies and companies like Dawood Hercules is now hirng their services to conduct the test.

NTS is also holding General GAT,GAT for UET and this year even held GAT for Pakistan Petroleum Limited.Reportedly there were more than 0.3 million applicants for a few vaccancies of Pakistan Petroleum.NTS charges rs. 600-800 from each applicant,which means a revenue of 18 crores or more just from Pakistan Petroleum.

NTS organizes some 50 tests at minimum and its profit amounts to billions.But the dark part of it is that NTS is'nt bound to call each applicant and neither it is bound to inform the applicant that why was'nt he considered?And approximately 20% of applicants dont get a reply.Same happens when Punjab Public Service Commission (PPSC) or Federal Public Service Commission announces any job and asks the applicant to submit a bank challan of 500 rs. along with application.Years pass by,but these commissions dont bother to call the candidate for the test or interview.They give out jobs on the approach of some MNA or MPA.And all that money goes to their pockets.

This technical corruption has been going on since 4 years or more.But no one is taking notice,neither anyone is making noise.All are silent on this very technical corruption.I dont know whether the situation will become better or worsen in future.I thought it appropriate to share it here so that someone may take notice of it and raise voice.

An analysis of Shehbaz Sahreef's speech in Bahawalpur

Below is the excerpt of Shehbaz Shareef's speech which he delivered in Bahawalpur while distirbuting internships and laptops :


Let us now analyze this news :
1- His speech reveals that he has'nt learnt anything from his exile.He has'nt got enough tolerance uptill now to bear criticism.Thats why he is using the term "Jaahil" i.e ignorant for those who have criticized hislaptop scheme.Some people had raised very genuine objections on laptop scheme but since Mr. CM considers himself the wisest of all,he does'nt care or probably he's cleevr enough to gain the sympathies of youth by distributing laptops blindly,without bothering who is in sheer need of laptop or not.

2- He thinks that by distributing laptops ,he'll be able to produce 20,000-25,000 computer experts/research scientists.He does'nt know that getting a laptop does'nt mean that you have become a computer expert and as far as research scientists are concerned ,there will be hardly 5000 research scientist in whole country.Every Tom dick and Harry can't be research scientist.I guess his incompetent and dumb advisors tell him such things.

3-He said it is your right to vote and then he conveyed his message  between the lines that remember us while voting since it is me who is giving you laptops.

4-Then he met the family of those 26 persons who had lost their lives in a road accident.He condoled with them and announced 0.5 million rupees for each of them.Condoling is fine,but they had died in a traffic accident.Such accidents keep ahppening everywhere.
will he pay to eah of them as well?
Since he has to give money from government's fund,he does'nt bother.If he was to give form his ownpocket,he would never have because giving 0.5 million rupees to 26 individuals means distirbuting 13 million rupees and he distributed 75,000 to each of the injured ones.
If these people had died in a calamity,then this distribution of money would be fine but giving to victims of road accident does'nt amke sense. 

Subtle politics of Shehbaz Shareef in Punjab

It is the very old tradition of sub-continent to give titles to self.This tradition still exists as Chief Minister Punjab Mian Shehbaz Shareef has claimed himself as " khadim e aala ".A critical analysis of few of his policies will reveal that how true is he in his claim.

Last year he started distributing laptops among youth.He started that scheme to attract the young voters of PTI.And that scheme was so unfair that laptops were awarded to students of agriculture,arts,law and medicine whereas they did'nt need it.I being the student of engineering know that although we engineers have to work on softwares as huge as 8GB ,yet majority of us managed to complete engineering without laptops.
However the point is that if someone needed laptops,it were students of IT,BCS and Engineering etc.Rest all are using laptops for watching movies,playing games and using facebook.

Transparencey International had also objected to distribution of laptops.The distribution of laptops on so masive scale seems nothing but a political stunt.My point is emphasized by another evidence that last year Mian Nawaz Shareef had come to UET to distribute laptops.....He gave a political speech,motivated students to stand by him in the next elections.....The question here arises that in what capacity had he visited UET,whereas he is'nt even a member of National Assembly?........

He's been making political speeches in all ceremonies.Be it the ceremony of distribution of laptops,ceremony of Ashyana Housing scheme,distribution of green tractors,Distribution of badges for internship etc etc......He's lucky enough that his opponents have'nt referred to election commission to decalre him ineligible for the next elections because he's been advertising his party in a very subtle manner with government's funds........

A few days ago i saw the poster of Punjab Youth Internship Program on Social Media.........It revealed the schedule of laptop and internship badge distribution in different cities.......But in the bottom,the number of PML-N was given alongwith the instructions to join PML-N.I am attaching the pic below as a proof:


What is this?Nothing else but publicity of PML-N with government's funds.....!!!

A few days ago,when new world records in Punjab were being set,we saw another subtle trick of CM punjab.He had sent his son Hamza Shehbaz when the record to form largest flag was to be set.
And i thought what an aopportunity he has provided to his son to introduce himself to media and to the public of Punjab.......His supporters may say that Hamza had come there as Chairman Punjab Sports Board....But then the question arises that Hamza Shehbaz is the member of national asembly,why has he been appointed as chairman in a provincial institute?Tales of nepotism,does'nt stop here.....Ata Ul Haq Qasmi a scribe of PML-N is serving as Chairman Punjab Arts Council,jsut because he has his favours attached with PML-N......Yesterday i saw an ad on Tv where Hamza Shehbaz was holding a torch and delivering dialogues like a flop actor.......PReviously Shehbaz Shareef himself had appeared in an ad....Why so much expenditure to glamourize one family?Why?
