Punjab Chief Minister (CM) Shahbaz Sharif on Tuesday said that with the support of the Turkish, Lahore would be made the most beautiful city of the world.
During a meeting at his Minar-e-Pakistan camp office, the CM said that the use of a latest cleaning system would bring cultural change in the provincial capital. He added that the local administration would provide full assistance to a Turkish company to keep mosques in the city clean during the month of Ramadan.
He said Lahore would be transformed into one the most beautiful cities of the world, whereas the same model would also be replicated in Gujranwala, Faisalabad, Multan, Sialkot and other cities.
He said Lahore will give a new look as a result of the latest system of sanitation and the citizens would be provided a pollution-free atmosphere, adding due to which sanitation culture of the city is undergoing a positive change.
He said projects are also under consideration to generate energy from the city’s waste, for which landfill facilities are being constructed at Mahmood Booti and Lakhodair, near Ring Road.
The CM directed that a comprehensive plan should be chalked out to observe a cleanliness week after the month of Ramadan besides launching a vigorous and effective campaign to apprise the citizens of the importance of cleanliness.
The Solid Waste Management MD briefed the participants about progress made towards implementation of modern system of sanitation in the city and landfill facilities.
Addressing the meeting, the CM said Lahore had been given a new identity due to the latest system of sanitation, which will go a long way in bringing about a positive change in the standard of living of citizens.
He directed that flexes and banners should be displayed on the roads and mosques which have been cleaned under the new system so that the civil society is motivated with regard to the need for maintaining cleanliness.
The CM urged the Turkish companies to bring all their machinery and technology in the shortest possible time so that the old system of sanitation could be discarded. He directed the administration to extend full cooperation to the Turkish companies in their plan to wash the mosques of the city with rose water during the holy month of Ramadan.
Shahbaz said that a vigorous cleanliness week would be observed after the month of Ramazan to create public awareness in regard to sanitation through seminars, walks, declamations, symposium and lectures.
He directed that necessary plan should also be submitted to him regarding management of industrial, construction and hospital waste alongwith ensuring 100% attendance of workers, attached with the Turkish companies.
Well done Shahbaz Sharif. Make Lahore first then all Punjab and then all Pakistan as new Paris or like any other other beatififul cities and countries on the earth. All Pakistan is like Paradise but land grabbers, encroachment mafias, vendors ,beggers and corrupt land department officials starting from Patwaries have made this beautiful Pakistan as Masailistan.
Your actions will guide new generation to hate corruption and to beautify our country. Every politician should leave hypocracy and become real Khadim of awam! Otherwise, their palaces will also become hell and they would not be able to enjoy luxrius and secure life like kings & queens in Pakistan! Life outside Pakistan is like a bird in golden cage!
Brother what he has done can be seen easily so plz dont let them make more joke of us as a nation and open ur eyes plz .
I want to see PTI and PML(N) alliance. I am sure they both can bring some good change in the country.
The CM should concentrate on giving Lahore 24hr cheap electricity rather than making it a new Paris
I want to see PTI and PML(N) alliance. I am sure they both can bring some good change in the country.
I respect your ideas to make the whole city a paragon but you need to rule on living bodies not on dead__ poor people are living a miserable life especially due to the load shedding. So, first of all, please, play your role as a real Khadm-e-Aala.
I think shahbaz sharif is Chief Minister Lahore only..What he has done for other punjab..all the rest of punjab is still under crisis n he is thinking to spend all punjab budget on lahore only.
another day, another promise! these politicians know how to fool people. Time for change and make these type of politicians to realise those days are over! Since 25 year we have been listening to Lahore Metro system – spent billions and ended up yet another bus service! Lahore is not Punjab, comparatively its already over developed compared to other cities and towns of Punjab and Pakistan. Why this divide? Bring those cities at par with Lahore first and then move forward with all cities. This will ease pressure on mega cities too.
