Also in attendance were the Vice-Chancellor of Abbottabad University of Science and Technology (AUST), Prof. Dr. Tahir Irfan, Deputy Inspector-General of Police (DIG) Hazara, Mirvais Niaz, and District Police Officer (DPO), Zahoor Babar Afridi.
Traffic wardens were awarded certificates at the ceremony, and SP Traffic Warden, Qamar Hayat Khan, expressed hope that that app will help to alleviate Abbottabad’s traffic-related problems.
He commended the interest of the Vice-Chancellor, staff, and students of AUST, and announced that school students would also be involved in traffic education later on.
