O bhai Come out of Lahore. People of whole Punjab are getting sick and tired that the major chunk of the Punjab's development budget is spent on less than 10 million people in Lahore by PMLN and the rest 70 Million Approx are then told to be happy with peanuts like Danish schools and some Publicity stunt projects. I have visited many Places in Punjab recently and PPPP have the full potential to win more seats than they won in the past because of the indifference of PMLN and their short sighted Lahore Focused approach.
