LEFT OUT PATCHES OF JOINING ROADS

It is mostly observed that after the completion of road construction, in the middle-class areas of the city, a reasonable length of patch, joining side roads is mostly left untouched. Mostly it remains so for months causing disruption in the flow of traffic as well as irrepairable damage to tyres of bicycles and motorcycles. Car drivers rarely use such rock-ridden dirt-patches.

Who should be held responsible for this negligence, ignorance or biased planning? If it is a matter of normal policy of the concerned authorities, then Offsider slaps their faces with a big WHY! If contractors are the culprits, then they alongwith their State accomplices should be punished by the higher authorities.

Will the holy and pious Chief Minister ever bother to steal a few hours every week, in disguise, to visit middle-class and lower-class residential areas initially of his beloved Lahore and later of the whole Punjab to see the criminl social injustice and disparities?

And remember Mr. Chief Minister, any developmental work in your province is no big favour to people, it's your prime duty to do whatever is possible for you to take note of their problems and give them relief.

Will someone be bold enough to calculate how much amount of the taxpayers' money have been spent on security arrangements of the Chief Minister alongwith his cabinet, secreteries, honurary stupid advisers and how much on the welfare of poor masses? In fact such figures should be gathered from all provinces and especially about Rehman Malik alone!

Even a begger pays sales tax while purchasing packed milk for his family. So, we have a right to know where our tax money is spent and in what ratio.

It would be a great favour to People of Pakistan.
