Its deplorable that Pakistanis under the guise of settling old political scores are condemning this good act. Any development in any place should be welcomed. A lot of students will be nourished in these institutes. And this is coming from a Imran Khan fan.
Excellent gesture to acknowledge a genius of the calibre of Arfa-Kareem
What about the other villages? Stop playing politics just for votes you stupid politicians.
So someone had to die before any work could start? Another of the current government.
Long live Shehbaz Sharif. You are the best happened to Punjab.
