Shows the priority (or lack of it). If they improve health, education etc they won't be that much marketable as compared to building roads and bridges. Besides the rain will damage the infrastructure, so expect more goodies for government officials.

Heavy rains claim 31 lives across Punjab
Khadim -e- Ala Janab Showbaz Sharif with his long boots, still missing. Ahsan Iqbal (from Sialkot area) did make 1 hour long speech in assembly today but these people have no clue about peoples issues.Heavy rains claim 31 lives across Punjab - Pakistan - DAWN.COM
LAHORE: At least 31 people have been killed in rain-related incidents across Punjab since Wednesday night, police and rescue sources said.
Fifteen deaths were reported from Lahore and a total of seven from the districts of Sialkot and Gujranwala.
Punjab Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif has announced Rs500,000 aid for the deceased persons and Rs100,000 aid for those who were injured in monsoon rains.
The current spell is being generated by the first well-marked low pressure of the monsoon season that is moving towards Pakistan via Indian Rajasthan, moist current from the Bay of Bengal and a trough of westerly wave persisting over northern parts of the country.
The Pakistan Meteorological Department had sent out a warning that all rivers in Punjab would likely be in “very high” to “exceptionally high” flood from Sept 5 to 7 because of expected intensification of the current spell of fairly widespread rains reported from various parts of the country.
The floods of 2010 were the worst in Pakistan’s history, with 1,800 people killed and 21 million affected in what became a major humanitarian crisis.
