Punjab CM’s car
WHILE recently driving on the Mini Market roundabout, my car was hit by a Toyota Land Cruiser (LC-91) from behind at 9.15pm. The traffic warden while assessing the situation asked both the vehicles to be parked aside to resume the busy traffic.
Since I was reluctant to move the car for fear of the other driver running off, the warden very rudely said that he would restrain him. But, in a matter of a few seconds, while I was parking my car, the other driver had a tete-a-tete with the traffic warden who let him go without having him even coming out of his vehicle and looking at the damage he had inflicted upon my car.
When I protested, the warden was abusive and said that it was the Punjab chief minister’s vehicle with his daughter sitting inside and hence he had no option.
The whole incident left me appalled and disgusted. I would like to ask the ‘Khadim-i-Ala’: is he above the law? Is his family above the law? Even are his drivers above the law now? Are rules made only for commoners and not for these ruling elites?

No one needs to change nothing. The courts are always there. If the warden did neglect in his duty then he shall face the consequences.
If you dont want to get justice and think that what you know is everything then I am sorry to say that your problems gonna land in articles like this one.
If you have a medical problem you go to a doctor and if you have a legal problem you go to a lawyer.
I don’t understand why everyone is blaming the police, the government and all the higher ups. The situation in Pakistan has become this way because we, the general public has allowed it to happen, all we do is write a story or express our opinions on social networking sites. We just sit and watch and let such things happen, i’m sure when the the author of this story was trying to reason out with the traffic warden none of the eye-witnesses dared to go and take her side. And to all those who are questioning the authenticity of Nida’s story, wake up people…nobody wants to waste their time cooking up a story and then posting it on the internet knowing that there’s very little chance that justice will be given to them.
its vipps culture…………….
we need to change all this ……………………. use your vote in upcoming elections…………vote to the right and just people…..i will vote for PTI ……..u think and decide?????
Can you somehow have the warden’s testimonial posted here? i want to see if that warden really said what this article said he did. I am sure you can find out who the warden is by checking the duty roster between 9-10 PM at the nearest Traffic Police station.
absolutely agreed with Mr. Nasir
we must restrain ourselves and families, friends and every known/unknown persons to vote these so-called khadim-e-alas , etc.
