time, these will become illuminated islands when bright lights will reflect from all their facets after sunset.
I will not be surprised at all if we may see the scenes of one or two of these landing stations appearing in some popular TV serials or films. Who knows some director in the Hollywood or Bollywood may get inspired! Beyond doubt, the scenes from these Metro Bus landing stations will hit the social media, on Facebook, Twitter, Whatsapp and others and will play a major role in convincing people all over the world as to how peaceful our country is where we have these glass encased landing stations for our Metro Bus Service.
Obviously we are facing no shortage of electricity to illuminate these ‘all-glass’ landing stations of the Metro Bus Service.
And because of the ideal peace prevailing in the country there is no threat to the safety of these glass-encased landing stations and there is hardly any chance of those inside getting hurt in case a sheet or two of these may crash because of some natural calamity. We shall never even think if some terrorist would be tempted to try to plant some IED or some suicide bomber would try to blow one of these beautiful landing stations. We don’t have this sort of elements in our society.
Well, one can’t fight the nature and nobody should blame any human being if some catastrophic situation pops out of the blue.
And the residents of Rawalpindi and Islamabad in particular and those all over the country in general should be grateful and must bow their heads in respect and gratitude to our leaders who have spent all this money for such a project in which they have so effectively mixed utility with beauty.
There are always cynics around who would holler about ill use of taxpayers’ money. But they shall not forget that this also include the mindboggling amounts of money our elected representatives are paying in taxes.
Well, we shall take them as the blessed ones and not have a jaundiced view of the situation and get green. Instead, we should focus on the brighter side of the picture.
