Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz Sharif has taken a commendable step by appreciating the traffic warden who fined her son, Junaid Safdar, for violating traffic rules.
The incident took place in Lahore’s Johar Town, where police imposed a fine of Rs. 500 on Junaid Safdar’s vehicle. The Chief Minister called the action a practical example of equality before the law and praised the traffic warden’s impartial conduct.
According to details, the security vehicle accompanying Junaid Safdar was also fined for violating traffic laws. The warden formally issued a challan to Muhammad Ali, who was in the security vehicle, showing that there is no discrimination in the eyes of the law.
In another similar incident in Lake City, a vehicle was issued a Rs. 500 fine notice for using black paper on windows. Dolphin Force officials stopped the vehicle at 8:30 PM, and Warden Muhammad Amjad imposed the fine without any pressure.
Maryam Nawaz Sharif appreciated the performance of the Dolphin Force and traffic wardens, stating, “Obeying the law applies equally to everyone, whether a common citizen or a close associate of a high-ranking official.” Her statement has further reinforced the message of transparency and accountability at the public level.
