PPP’s governance

Published January 24, 2015

THE PPP is vying to win next elections to form the government but I bet they will not win even in Sindh, even if there was no Imran factor.

If they want to know the reason, they should form a team to observe the following: potholes in main roads and streets, traffic (mis)management, encroachments on roads and footpaths, oozing gutters, open manholes, heaps of waste, water scarcity, tanker mafia, mugging, extortions, the condition of government schools, government hospitals, health centres, etc.

They should then send the team to Lahore to observe things. They will be convinced that they do not stand a chance.
