Special Assistant to Punjab Chief Minister (SACM) Dr Firdous Ashiq Awan claimed on Monday that people were colouring the Sialkot incident in which she humiliated a female assistant commissioner in public during a visit to a Ramazan Bazaar to create conflict between government officials and public representatives .
Addressing a press conference in Lahore, Awan disclosed that she decided to approach Prime Minister Imran Khan and Punjab Chief Minister Usman Buzdar for advice on how to handle the controversy.
She said she visited the bazaar to fight for the people and not for a specific family , adding that the people, who were trying to colour the incident according to their own [interests] instead of sympathising with the public in order to create a conflict between the bureaucracy and the government, would be disappointed.
