company bus stand Islamabad for booking his seat, said passengers
are easily getting advance tickets that too on fixed fare this
year.

PML-N government directly benefitted the passengers, who used
private transport to reach their home towns.
He said this time another goodness for us is that government
is likely to announce more holidays as compared to past, which will
definitely help us spending more time with our relatives and
friends.

Islamabad to Layyah said her all family members are going to
celebrate Eid-ul-Fitr this year at their home town as government’s
relief on oil products prices have made the fares affordable in
their limited budget.
