Feasibility Study of Multan Metro

MULTAN

The Mass Transit Project Multan is likely to be launched either by the end of ongoing year or the beginning of next one as an eight-month long study is being launched by the Punjab Government to weigh the feasibility of the project, The Nation has learnt.

The study will be conducted by a Turkish enterprise Usmani Company and its experts will stay in Multan for the next eight months. Sources said that the study will determine that out of Bus, Light Rail or Metro (underground) which system is appropriate for Multan. The experts of Usmani Company are going to utilize Transcard and Transmodeler softwares for conducting this study for the first time in Pakistan.
The Multan Metro project had been promised by the Prime Minister Mian Muhammad Nawaz Sharif while addressing a public meeting here in Multan during the last leg of campaign before election 2013. The Chief Minister Punjab Mian Shahbaz Sharif materialized the promise of his elder brother and party chief by announcing Metro for three big cities of Punjab including Multan on February 3. Although the CM claimed in his statement that the Multan Metro would take 10 months to become functional, the project is likely to take more time.
Multan Divisional Commissioner Sher Alam Mehsood confirmed the launching of the study for the project. “Yes the study is being launched and we have asked the public representatives to submit their proposals on this project as soon as possible,” he added.
The Public representatives have proposed different routes for the bus. A route proposed by the Chairman of Punjab Assembly’s Standing Committee for Sports, Youth and Culture Mian Shahzad Maqbool Bhutta stated that the Metro Bus should begin its journey from Vehari Chowk/General Bus Stand and terminate at Industrial Estate via BCG Chowk, Chungi No-14, Daulat Gate, Ghanta Ghar, Nawan Shehr, Dera Adda, Aziz Hotel Chowk, Muzaffarabad and Industrial Estate. He also proposed that a supplementary route between Ghanta Ghar and Bahauddin Zakariya University via Chungi No-9 and Bosan Road should be added to the plan. Sources said that the proposal is supported by the provincial minister Ch. Abdul Waheed Arrain.

Similarly, senator Javed Ali Shah proposed that the main route of Metro Bus should start from Chowk Nag Shah and end at to-be-established New Kachehri in Matti Tal area. “Besides residents of Multan, it will also facilitate the residents of Shujabad and Jalalpur Pirwala tehsils too,” the senator, who has been an MNA from Shujabad asserted.

An MPA Rana Tahir Shabbir told this scribe that he had also forwarded his proposals by e-mail while provincial minister Ch Abdul Waheed Arrain claimed that the project would get the city rid of traffic problems for next 50 years.
Some public representatives, however, oppose the project. “It’s not as good a project as being portrayed. Multan is a congested city with narrow roads. It will bring big devastation as the government needs to bring almost half of the city down for widening roads for it,” they maintained while talking to this scribe on condition of anonymity. “The government can revamp transport system of Multan by increasing the number of small vehicles used for public transportation with the investment of just one or two billion rupees instead of spending dozens of billions on Metro,” they added

History: Ghanta Ghar or Clock Tower of Multan was built in 1884 A.D. during British Raj in Indian Subcontinent. After passing municipal act 1883 British needed offices to run the city. They started constructing Ghanta Ghar in Multan on 12 February 1884 and it took 4 years to completely build this building. It was constructed over the ruins of Haveli of Ahmad Khan Sadozai which was completely destroyed during Siege of Multan. The hall and building was named 'Ripon Hall and Ripon Building' after the name of Ripon, viceroy of India at that time. And clock tower was named Northbrook Tower after the name of Northbrook, a former viceroy of India (18772-1876).
This building was completed, opened and offices shifted in 1888.
Hall was named 'Jinnah Hall' after partition of India and it used for office meetings, cultural programs and public was also allowed to enter here. With passage of time this building became insufficient for offices and small hall was also insufficient for meetings, so offices were shifted from here. Now idea is to change this historic building into a museum.

Ali Muhammad Khan Masjid Multan

Ali Muhammad Khan Masjid

Another old masjid of Multan, which is still in good condition, is Masjid Ali Muhammad Khan, which is also known as Mosque Wali Muhammad Khan. It is an excellent building, situated in the busiest Chowk Bazaar of the city. It was built by Nawab Ali Mohammad Khan Khakwani in 1757 (1171 A.H.) when he was the governor of Multan under Ahmad Shah Durrani. The mosque is provided with a reservoir for the ablutions, baths, and a large hall for prayers. During the Sikh period, the gateway of the Mosque was used as the courthouse of the Nazim, while its great hall was utilized for keeping the Granth, or the holy book of the Sikhs. The Mosque was restored to the Muslims by the British Government at the commencement of the British rule.

DHA Multan Planned

Gujranwala, Multan and Bahawalpur are three cities where DHA has planned to establish housing societies, among which the sale and purchase for DHA Gujranwala has already kicked off. Such developments are observed as a positive for the long-term growth of the real estate sector.

Few years back, Lahore, Karachi and Islamabad/Rawalpindi were the only places where investors found some room to put their money in for some profits. However, these cities are now pushing their limits — Lahore’s boundaries are now merging with some of its districts due to various factors.

An Ancient Masjid Lilliputian Mosque in Multan

Mughal Era Mosque?
There are a number and variety of mosques in Multan. Most of these mosques are tomb-mosques. Two such mosques are known as ‘Sawi’ or green mosques. The larger sawi mosque is comparatively recent, while the smaller one is old and belongs to Akbar’s period. The older, Lilliputian mosque is not very well known and most people who live around it call it a maqbarah (tomb) rather than a mosque. It is situated in an extremely populated area.

Multan is situated about 198 miles (312 kilometers) south-east of Lahore. The city is built on a mound just east of the Chenab River which once flowed very close to it. Multan was formerly called Kashtpur, Hanspur, Bagpur, Sanb (or Sanbpur) and finally Mulasthan. It gets its name from the graven-image of the sun-god temple, an opulent shrine of the pre-Muslim period.
