Moreover, MH Mirpur has from the outset, focused on delivering aid though strong partnerships with grass-roots community groups, the Government and the private sector. Not only does this reduce duplication and wastage – evidence shows that only such partnerships can produce lasting change. May Allah reward all those who have made this work possible. The rapidly expanding Safe Drinking Programme, which has already seen 16 modern water filtration plants installed across Mirpur in less than a year has been the most prominent intervention made my MH Mirpur – however, much good work has been done in the areas of education, medical care and environmental protection to name but a few.

But not all are convinced. Kamil Khan Mumtaz, President of Lahore Conservation Society (LCS), an advocacy organization promoting preservation projects, says the efforts run the risk of transforming the old city into a “Disneyland” to attract tourists. “This was a pedestrian’s city. A pre-Industrial revolution modeled city. This should be conserved into that original state instead of remodeling buildings,” said Mumtaz, who is pushing for the use of traditional construction materials in restoration projects. The calls runs into fresh conflict with infrastructure plans aimed at easing the city’s traffic congestion as Lahore adds high-rise build- ings, malls, flyovers and amusement parks to its cityscape. Lahore was the first Pakistani city to unveil a metro bus serv- ice, and is now constructing an inaugural metro train that Mum- taz and fellow civil society groups say will diminish the architectural history. The city also faces fresh challenges as it opens up to tourism. Canadian visitor Usama Bilal complains: “There are gorgeous old colonial buildings, British era buildings but they are not well taken care of. There is no infrastructure Tourists prepare to board a colorful double decker bus before start their journey in Pakistan’s historic and cultural city of Lahore.
