LAHORE: The city administration has decided to prepare a catalogue of the several known personalities buried at the Miani Sahib Graveyard.
The core objective behind this development is to provide basic information about the personalities buried in the country’s biggest graveyard in terms of burials, and make people aware of the services rendered by them, while the administration also wants to upgrade the burial services there.
“The graveyard has a historical significance, as a large number of people, including several known personalities, are buried here. Therefore, we have decide to keep acknowledging the services of the famous personalities buried here by preparing a history catalogue that will include placement of plaques or iron plates inscribed with the particulars and services of such people,” Deputy Commissioner Mudassar Riaz Mal

LAHORE:
While the government is striving to provide relief to the people through Ramazan Bazaars set up by district administrations to provide quality items at affordable prices during the month, the rates in other markets have gone out of control.
With Ramazan approaching, shopkeepers increased the prices of essential commodities across the city. Citizens visiting the markets across the city complained that the prices of vegetables, fruits and meat had skyrocketed.
With the aim of providing relief to the citizens by offering cheap essential commodities without compromising on their standard before the holy month, the task of setting up 313 Ramazan Bazaars in 36 districts of the province was assigned to the district administrations.
