LAHORE (The Thursday Times) — Qila Lahore ka Akbari Darwaza, jo Bartanvi daur mein band kar diya gaya tha, bahal kar diya gaya hai, aur yahan ticket office banane ka mansooba hai taake yeh sayyahon ke liye baqaida dakhli rasta ban sake aur Androon Shehar ke rehaishiyon ke liye qile tak pohanch aasan ho.
Budh ko is darwaze aur Curator's House ki ibtidai ronumai hui. Bartanvi daur ki yeh imarat pehle qile ke muhafizon ki rehaish thi, baad mein intezami kamon ke liye istemal hui aur haal tak do gharon mein taqseem thi. Ab ise khane peene ki jagah mein badla jayega.
Walled City of Lahore Authority ke Director General Najmus Saqib ne kaha ke is kaam ka maqsad tareekhi maqamat tak rasai behtar banana, zyada logon ko lana aur maashi mawaqe paida karna hai. Un ke mutabiq darwaze ke khulne se Androon Shehar aur qile ka rabta dobara jur jayega.
Yeh kaam 2022 mein shuru hone wale us mansoobe ka hissa hai jise French Development Agency ka taawun hasil hai aur Aga Khan Cultural Service Pakistan is par amal kar rahi hai. Yeh darwaza Mughal badshah Akbar ke daur ka hai aur aam taur par is ki tareekh 1566 batayi jati hai. Akbari Mahal, Kala Burj aur Bartanvi barracks mein kaam abhi jari hai.
Ticket office ki koi tareekh nahin batayi gayi, is liye filhal yeh wazeh nahin ke aam log is darwaze se kab guzar sakenge.
