I voted for the first time in 2013 elections and my vote was for PML-N but today I am highly disappointed on how I am still deprived of basic rights despite PML-N’s leaders’ promises. The government is in dire need to prioritise their responsibilities.
Basic necessities like electricity, water and gas are not available to every citizen, but still we are coping with the shortfall patiently. However, when it comes to education of our children I just cannot tolerate any violation of the rights. Since Mr Shahbaz Sharif is an advocate of education and talks about youth and their empowerment all the time on every platform, I would like to bring a very important matter to his knowledge.
Sir, photography, fortunately or unfortunately, is now a subject well pursued, and as it’s more of a practical subject it requires field work. Pakistan is of great significance when it comes to historical places and to photograph such beautiful places is a part of students’ studies.
CM Shahbaz Sharif, your government is depriving students to fully acquire their skills in this field. Students are not allowed to enter the premises of Lahore Fort and other historical places with their cameras. And yes if you bribe the concerned person and if he is in a good mood, he might let you enter for a few minutes and that too only to a few areas.
Mr Chief Minister, please take some action in this regard and mend absurd laws regarding taking photographs in and of public places. Please don’t let student fall prey to such absurd laws which are of no significance. This should also help flourish our tourism industry.
