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.

The purpose of a government is to provide a better life to its citizens. In that regards, if they have to provide subsidies, than that should be it. Once your tax base grows and the economy improves and people start to make more money, it may not be needed.
 
Where are these records at? Care to take these to the Supreme Court so you can get these people to jail? OR.....the proofs are a bunch of papers scanned and altered by yellow and ugly corrupted journalists like Lick-Man on ARY, who, outside of everyone's interest, is hoping for a "Minister of Information" seat from IK in return of his loyalty and lying to the entire country on TV???
I met Lick-Man long time ago in Islamabad. This guy didn't know how to wear a suite properly, let alone talk. He came in with a senior journalist from the Geo group and back then, he used to lick their boots so he could meet the "foreigners" and gain some influence in his little standing. Back then, he was threatening and blackmailing industrialists and all. And you have proofs like the proofs he presents!!! No wonder, your society is as corrupt as it can be. But the blame is pointed to the person of choice!

NAB had proofs against Asif Ali Zardari. They were going to take all that to court. PPP government what they did was fired all senior NAB officers and replaced them with their own people. All proofs are destroyed. Then these officers are put back in their place when supreme court comes in and says that their firing was unconstitutional. Then NAB takes blame for their "inability" to present proof against zardari and others in court. That's how it is in Pakistan.

Trust me, I know how Pakistan, India and China work. I know they changed NAB's senor officials. But to say that all material witnesses dies or were disappeared is a misstatement. Zardari has Presidential Privileges that saved him. Otherwise, he'd be living in the US or the UK like majority of Pakistan's politicians who do mass corruptions and do spend some years in the West. While their next generation, which doesn't really speak your national language, gets ready to come back, use daddy's corruption money and become the next big thing in Pakistan.

there wasn't just cases against zardari alone...All senior PPP members were involved in corruption which NAB had evidence against.
 
There is no getting personal. Let's establish the facts:
1) NS in his first time around early 90's was involved with corruption. Everyone knows it.
2) Zadari family has ALWAYS been involved with corruption. And he'll never change as his background starts with corruption. Its funny when the Indians say "a tea boy became the PM of India", well.....years before that, a guy who used to sell Cinema tickets and drugs, became the President of Pakistan (Zardari)
3) Mushy was involved with corruption. You should go see his son's homes and their worth in the US, not to mention the farms and the homes he owns.
4) NS's second term, none of these guys have done corruption. Its why IK and others are super concerned because they see these guys making serious progress and winning the next government also. These guys are behind a legacy and they'll probably create one a they are hell bent in finishing up the electrical outage issue and bring in the investment to turn Pakistan into a modern country. In the 70 years of this country's history, the foreign investors have a confidence about Pakistan that has never been seen before. That's a fact. I watch the market and strategic investments and all. Trust me, I know what I am talking about.

Zardari wasn't "forgiven" by NS. As a President, per your constitution, you are to some degree above the law or have the Presidential Privileges to not be indited. Its your constitution and majority of the world's. You can impeach him but he ain't going to jail for anything. Sad but true. Before you shift blame to others, people who elected a corrupt person like this, should be questioned and educated properly about their voting rights.

If these are facts then put NS behind bars... i care less.

small list of FACTS of your tribal leader:
  • Zardari was charged and arrested in a 1990 attempted-murder and extortion charge stemming from a plot where he and an accomplice allegedly strapped a remote-controlled bomb to the leg of Pakistani-born British businessman and forced him to cash $800,000 in checks.
  • Zardari bought almost $1 million worth of jewelry through a Swiss bank account and an American Express card, via the Pakistani treasury
  • Zardari received a $10 million kickback from a gold bullion dealer in return for a monopoly on gold imports into Pakistan
  • French military contractor Dassault Aviation agreed to pay Zardari $200 million in exchange for a $4 billion jet fighter deal with Pakistan. (The deal fell apart when Bhutto was booted out of government.)
  • The couple built a $50 million ?prime minister?s residence” on 110 acres on an Islamabad hilltop. Zardari also acquired the 365-acre, $8 million Rockwood Estate in Surrey, England, and a $4 million estate in Palm Beach County, Florida. Not bad on a government salary….
  • In 1996, Zardari was arrested again and charged with murder conspiracy of the assassination of his wife?s brother, who was leading a splinter faction of the PPP which was gaining popularity at the time
 
So you mean to say that Punjab government has no writ of its own and cannot handle the private transport mafia and keep the fares in check ? A BIG FLOP !
Where are these records at? Care to take these to the Supreme Court so you can get these people to jail?

But the blame is pointed to the person of choice!

As I said no point in flaffing around with me. If there are any allegations of corruption against PPP and the government has any evidence then Zardari should be put behind bars.

No point in discussing ARY or any anchor with me as I have nothing to do with them. You won't be able to change the course.

Really ? So many allegations. Why don't you file a petition against him ?

The purpose of a government is to provide a better life to its citizens. In that regards, if they have to provide subsidies, than that should be it. Once your tax base grows and the economy improves and people start to make more money, it may not be needed.

So the subsidy is only for metro bus. Not for medicines, education, food items and more other important departments ? Don't give me useless rubbish excuses.

There are already, and NS is all set to issue clean chit to Zardari.
We can conveniently add, murder of Baynazir Bhutto.

for your satisfaction, quoting from wikileaks ,:
'9. (SBU) Zardari was jailed from 1997 to 2004 on charges ranging from corruption to murder, but he has argued these charges were politically motivated. He was arrested for the first time in 1990 on blackmail charges for allegedly tying a remote-control bomb to the leg of a UK-based Pakistani businessman, Murtaza Bukhari, and sending him into a bank to withdraw money from his account as a pay-off. These charges were dropped in 1992 when Benazir was elected Prime Minister. Zardari was re-jailed in 1996 on corruption charges. In 1997, while still in jail, he won a seat in Pakistan's Senate that he held until the events of October 1999. Since his 2004 release from jail, Zardari has spent most of his time in New York. '

You'll never find me arguing with your statements. Zardari is more corrupt and money hungry than the Pirates of the Carridean. There is no doubt in my mind. However, you can't mix Flour and Salt together, because they look the same color. Similarly, NS's team, just in the past 3 years, has a HUGE portfolio of projects that is benefiting the entire country. You can't put him or his team in the same league Zardari. I think Zardari needed to be behind bars. 200 BILLION corruption is a LOT of money for a country the size of Pakistan and its poor system. That should be considered treason. But, your own public brought his party to power and then further, messed up by giving him Presidential powers and a free ticket home by making him the President?? Somewhere along the line, the PEOPLE need to see what they are doing wrong too, and who the heck they are voting for, without a track record of doing anything for the country!!

You are missing the point. The Presidential Powers is what has gotten Zardari a free ticket to ride anything. Others don't have any say in it, so they'll have to work with him. The guy wanted to be "escorted" by the F-16's for God's sake, just because of his hunger and show off of power. Its your country's reputation on stake so even the military, albeit hating him, doesn't support him being into the jail. You can't, because that would start another legal drama that might cut your country into pieces.

Public never elects P.M in Pakistan and neither they elect president.
All elections held by so called democratic regimes are rigged even before they start... none of our assembly member comply to any law of election commision or have any stakes in Pakistan.
Pakistan's politicians are all wired to foreign agencies and think tanks, who regularly advise them how to subdue army in emerging crisis due to corruption of politicians.
Most corrupt politician you are most US / UK visas you get... this is a set rule to identify most corrupt politician and civil servant of Pakistan.

The Presidential Powers is what has gotten Zardari a free ticket to ride anything.
Presidents always have powers but its his election to the postion, which brings bad repute to the authority.
His election to the position was clear result of political adjustment among 3 major political parties.

The guy wanted to be "escorted" by the F-16's for God's sake
When he has a choice to appoint the chiefs of armed forces, he can also tell them to remove pants in exchange... there's no surprise, when deserving candidates are always by passed by politicians.

Most corrupt politician you are most US / UK visas you get... this is a set rule to identify most corrupt politician and civil servant of Pakistan.

See bold above:

1) You are mistaken if you think the current elections which happened two years ago, were rigged to bring in a majority. That's just pure false accusation and has no basis outside of the Military's hate for NS and thus, birth of IK into making him a leader.

Let me tell you something, you think that drama from falling off the lift was something real and it really cause so much damage to IK's body who wears bullet proof vest :welcome: to reality. It was ALL staged to get people to sympathize with IK to win last minute votes. And it had a huge impact in turning him into a "leader" by showing him in the hospital hurting BUT talking about Pakistan and how to support his change about Pakistan, well written by a previous general who's been visiting Islamabad from Dubai a lot during IK's different shows :yahoo:. IK is ALSO a UK resident, just so you know.Its something in your politicians' blood that they can't live without the West's immigration or citizenships!! Btw, NS and his family don't have it. They can go anywhere they want to, but they don't have "allegiance" to other countries.

2) Pakistani politicians and generals are all wired for foreign influence. There is no doubt about it. But, you should add "generals" in there too where its deserved, instead of grilling politicians only. Let's be fair to the situation. Where is Mushy's son settled? And where is his millions of dollars worth of investments sent to? I can give you a lot more names if you like :-). Any defense purchase has your Army and its generals cut and its divided between them as a team. Gen. Raheel Sharif, in recent times, is the ONLY guy who's not going to do this. Outside of it, everyone did this to some degree, period!! So long story short, everyone's in Pakistan's leadership, whether civilian or not, has the shinny word "Corrupted" on their forehead.

The current term has so far been the cleanest out of all 70 years. Let's hope the system creates a Pakistan out of this term, which can become more modern and successful and without military influence so it can run by people who can take it forward. Rules by the people, not by thieves or the dictators!
