United States of Punjab ?

Either you need to visit KPK yourself or keep really up to date with following KPK government. I’m sorry but a massive road improvement work in Nathia Gali won’t attract media’s attention nor anti encroachment drive in Mardan to improve the existing road network. But that doesn’t mean no work is taking place.

“maintenance” work is not considered “mega development project”.

@Jolie

Yes, if a poor province tries improve the transportation by just mending the existing road network here and there, instead of spending billions on building new highways, our materialistic and superficial awaam won’t consider it an improvement.

“poor province”? KPK needs to get development funds from Federal if it does not have sufficient funds, that is what “Fed” is for. Present a development project to Fed and Fed is then going to fund the project, Fed itself is not going to design/develop and then fund the project for KPK to build it.

@Jolie

KPK is inaugurating massive flyover this month in Peshawar, so finally a major development lollipop for the critics.

One flyover probably may not cut it for picture-lovers. However, besides transportation, what has been done in health/education development? New hospitals, universities (est by KPK, not private).

@Jolie

Captain, would you consider below work an improvement? Yes happening in remote areas where TV cameras simply don’t go.

:k: This is what people need, make more areas accessible, increase lanes where possible, increase road safety on mountain-roads with lighting, railings etc.
