PMLN’s manifesto has been announced today.
I cant see anything in it regarding terrorism which is the biggest issue for Pakistan.
They are claiming to hold the local government elections within six months of being elected. Remember this government could not hold the elections during the past five years.
Re: PMLN's manifesto
Don't worry, Punjab is still far peaceful then rest of the provinces. Whatever PMLN is doing its working.
As far terrorism policy concerns, the way SS disarm and dismantle the power of Hafiz Saeed is proof enough of his capabilities.
Really? When was an operation carried out against JEM, LET and ASWJ/LEJ?
Its the appeasement of the terrorist elements which has brought some semblance of peace in the province, thats another thing that 1-2 incidents have still happened including attack on Kamra.CM Shahbaz wants Taliban to spare Punjab | Latest news, Breaking news, Pakistan News, World news, business, sport and multimedia | DAWN.COM
Re: PMLN's manifesto
Every thing we see depends on its background.
It was/is really easy to shine as super CM after ppp turn rest of the country ruins.
SS is ok, given current situation.
NS is NOT!!
NS made promises in the past, never ever ever kept them.
He is classic example of panjabi culture, where there is no line between lie truth promises etc etc.
Kinda like hamid-mir javeed-cahudhary kamran-khan etc.
NS is also playing panjab card, and others are using this card to show their local vote bank that "panjab" is with us
we are the real deal, exmaple fazlu rehman and sindhi dudes.
NS/MLN is lying SOB bunch, I could not care less what crap come of their mouth in the name of manifesto.
Re: PMLN’s manifesto
Situation in Punjab is not that worst, we don’t have target killings here - we don’t have bomb blasts here every other day, we don’t have people with armed men rooming around or wadera’s kidnapping girls from defense & Clifton. Hence we don’t require operation to take out the goons, Special Branch is enough to tackle it and they are doing handsomely one pig at a time.
On any scale Punjab is doing better under PMLN then other provinces actually progressed too. What else you are looking for under current situation? When the PMLN take the federal government we will see the difference between them and then PPP, until then :chai: piyo !
Criticism for the sake of criticism is not the solution. Appreciate the good things and let the people decide.
Re: PMLN's manifesto
i said SS is ok, he is ok for lahore only. SS think people only live in lahore.
And how rest of the province think lahore is their bride which need look pretty for rest of the province.
This whole thing is sickening.
I could not hate them more.
Re: PMLN's manifesto
^ have a visit of Faisalabad sometime, in last 5 years city is totally changed positively !
Re: PMLN's manifesto
So the notion that Faisalabad textile industry has suffered because of lack of gas and electricity is not true?
Re: PMLN’s manifesto
This is a fact that LeJ/ASWJ prepares their operations in punjab and operates elsewhere in Pakistan. If you really think that punjab govt did not turn a blind eye towards Malik Ishaq and Ludhianvi’s activities, then you are sadly mistaken.
So you say whatever SS say is working? Asking Taliban to spare punjab because we have a similar agends, then yeah it worked. Lets see if KPK, Sindh and Balochistan follow or not 
Its not criticism for the sake of criticism. PML-N allied with ASWJ and this is because of SS and Rana SanaUllah. And when $hit hit the fan, they started denying it only to be rebutted on live shows by ASWJ’s spokesman. Well played PML-N
And now they promise to hold local government elections? Its a joke right? They rolled back local governance all the way just because PML-Q musharraf started it and now they wanna revive it because whole nation sees the benefits of local governance??
Pure election gimmicks.

PMLN has kept the province peaceful at the expense of the whole country. At one time Taliban started attacks in Punjab, and shahbaz appealed to them to stop it because his party has the same aim as Taliban. Lo and behold, the attacks in the province stopped.
Today southern Punjab is the epicenter of sectarian violence elsewhere in the country. But people like ASWJ and LeJ do not cause trouble for PMLN in Punjab. This is why the province is relatively peaceful.
PMLN in its lust for power has shown that it damn cares about the country and its economy. Because Pakistan is going backward economically only because of religious extremist khariji violence.
i think** it should be shameful for anyone to support this duo of extremist saudi-backed brothers.**
Re: PMLN's manifesto
If anyone thinks that Punjab will stay safe from religious extremist violence by following PMLN's policy of overlooking religious morons, then they are mistaken.
Punjab alone cannot develop while the rest of the country breaks down. Religious extremism is tearing the country apart.
Pmln is playing a dangerous game only to stay in power and mince more and more money.
Re: PMLN's manifesto
I think its safe to say that the situation is better in Punjab not because the governance and law enforcement is better, but because terrorists have chosen not to target it. Thats nothing to brag about.

Gas & Electricity is federal domain, definitely after last constitution amendment electricity generation rights has been transferred to provincial governments but i believe provincial governments doesn't have money & neither technical expertise to setup power plants, you can argue on it with valid points.

Could be as i said before whatever the gimicks done by SS it worked also its naive to say that PMLN support terrorism or ideology such as Taliban/Al-Qaeda, but i am all for debate regarding developments works in Punjab vs rest of the provinces.
Re: PMLN’s manifesto
South Punjab serves as HQ to extremists in Punjab no doubt about it. But its also unfair to blame provincial government for lack of action against such menace it goes quiet higher ultimately point towards establishment if you don’t know Sardar Khosa is managing the counter terrorism operations against extremist elements in Punjab and his policy of leaning low is working like a charm the prime example is Hafiz Saeef his hands & legs are taken out just teeth left they will be taken care soon too.

You know if i was in SS shoes probably i would do the same to save even if a single life is at stake.
..and after your notion of aligning with ASWJ it was Punjab Government which arrested Malik Ishq few days ago & his son yesterday, it means $hit didn’t hit the fan yet.
I am with you on that, actually i am still fan of Musharraf-era local government. It was a blunder by our political class to totally dismantle it.
It’s election season buddy, what you are expecting?

They do have money to invest on getting IPP's up and running at rather than investing blindly on projects without proper feasibiliy. Flop projects like danish schools, sasti roti, yellow cabs, laptops. Now this amount nearly to 70-100 billions and could have been injected towards IPPs who are struggling to get money and fuel because of circular debts.
SS did not want to do all this because this would not have 'shown' as his accomplishment. So he's rather invest on all above mentioned programs.
Like I have always maintained, SS is an angel as compared to rest of totally incompetent CMs. He is an incredibly good mayor though ;)
Re: PMLN's manifesto

Danish Schools, Yellow cabs, Laptops, Solar Panels, MB are all good schemes and must be made permanent.
Circular Debt has nothing to do with provincial governments its the federal domain, SS is definitely an angel compare to rest of the CMs.
Re: PMLN’s manifesto
Blaming establishment is always PML-N’s favorite mantra. I expect better from you. If they dont wanna do anything then at the very least do not endorse alliance with a banned outfit.
Its not my notion buddy. Its been all over the news. Rana SanaUllah going hand in hand with Ludhianvi and Malik Ishaq for by elections. And ASWJ spokesperson confirming on tv that they withdrew their candidate in bhakkar in favour of SS. Its not my notion.
And they have not ‘arrested’ Malik Ishaq. They have taken him in protective custody. Huge difference in the two. He has full access to his resources and its a token gesture once again. A face saving. Do you watch TV shows nowadays? Do you see SanaUllah defending ASWJ and asking people to come up with proof?
dude, read what you said. It does not reflect well on CM of biggest province to plead Taliban for mercy and to spare his province only. Big no no!
This is our tragedy. our leaders think only about next elections irrespective of how this money is being wasted. And sadder thing is that our nation falls for it
