Shahbaz buys ticket, travels as ordinary passenger in bus

That is what needed to be done in order to really understand the commuters problem ......... Great job CM but we want to see more n more buses on the roads of all country at the earliest as you have already wasted three years in bringing them on the roads

PUNJAB Chief Minister Muhammad Shahbaz Sharif on Wednesday traveled as an ordinary commuter without any security or protocol in a newly launched urban transport bus in the provincial metropolis.

The other passengers of the bus were pleasantly surprised to see the chief minister and the bus resounded with the slogans of “Chief Minister Punjab Zindabad.” 

Urban Transport Company Chairman Khawaja Ahmad Hasaan also accompanied him. The chief minister paid for the bus ticket and inquired from the fellow passengers about the new transport service. Expressing his views, a worker, Muhammad Yasin, said that people of Lahore were thankful to the chief minister for providing an affordable and comfortable bus service to Lahorites. The passengers requested the CM to increase the number of buses. The chief minister also went to the cabin of female passengers and informed them that a separate bus service would soon be launched for them. 

A student of the Government Gulberg College, Muhammad Siam, said that it was a wrong impression that students want to travel in the new buses free of charge but on the contrary they were grateful to the Punjab government for this facility and would continue to extend their cooperation.

It may be mentioned that when the chief minister boarded the bus from Model Town, no one had information about it and the bus continued to stop on its route to pick up passengers.

MEMOGATE SCANDAL: Shahbaz Sharif has said that Memogate scandal is a conspiracy against Pakistan’s sovereignty, survival and defence and its architects will have to be exposed. 

He said that every sacrifice would be made for the honour and solidarity of the country and the evil designs of the elements trying to weaken the country would be foiled. He was talking to assembly members of various districts here on Wednesday. He said that the person sitting in the President’s House was ready to go to any extreme to prolong his rule.
