Exercise in futility. Nothing is gonna happen. Just a photo session, as election are drawing near. PMLN has No future WHATSOEVER in Chitral. Mafirat Shah is gonna clean sweep in lower Chitral. The upper Chitral certainly goes to PTI.
Both PPP and PMLN are destined to kiss the dust in next elections. This is a writing on the wall. Good luck with the photo sessions. Hope the participants enjoyed the biscuits with tea!
What about roads????
