Unpredictable Lahore

You can't predict what's gonna be the weather of Lahore. The very next moment brings up a surprise. Same happened today. It was scorching hot when I left from home to pick my wife, but just after 3 miles the whole atmosphere was cloudy, covered with dark clouds.
You can't even rely over the forecast. They predict that you will have to take water the whole day long as you might sweat a lot. But when you leave your home or office you find it to be a lie as the clouds are showering.
So be cool and wear a raincoat before entering Lahore as you won't ever know that when it's gonna rain.

Urban Barbarians

It is among the vital issues of Pakistan that a major sum of population lives in slum. The picture is from an urban area of Lahore, called Johar Town, which implies that the nomad class of Pakistan is dwindling upon the free acres of land. What they usually search for is the air, sun and earth. Water is not that big issue for them as they are habitual of striving without water for days.
The urban culture in the country is pretty much diversified into their personal priorities that they forget the social development. How could a state develop when a group of its inhabitants lay down their heads in slum.
Among these folks, a number of youngsters are found stealing from nearby housing schemes. The kids of this class are usually busy in begging for money from the passers. Besides there is an indecent criminal log of this class, including mugging and roberies.
Rather it won't be wrong to say that these humans can be classified as Urban Barbarians and not to forget, we made them so.
