Every parking lot has 50 to 100 rs charges . No shade for cars , no security .
If you read one full newspaper from page 1 to the last, you will see that there is nothing legal and in order in this country. I might call Pakistan, ‘Illegalistan’. Nothing new. This has been going on since 1947, has only worsened with time, and will continue for ever unless a miracle happens.
