Even though the metrobus is a good service I agree to and second Haris's comment. Please dont vote for PML-N or PPP.
I believe it's a work of federal government to ensure the supply and control water & electricity department. Why don,t we see such load-shedding in karachi area? Regarding Metrobus....it is the best facility for the people of lahore. .. I hope they will cope with electricity when they come in the federal government.. Vote for PML N .
@Haris: Do I smell something burning?
@Haris: yes we have the metro and when we elect the new primeminister we will get a ton more of stuff that u wont have even electricity so yes be more jealous!
Who cares for power loss when you have 70 arab metro bus running in your city? You ought to relish the luxury which metro bus offers you.
