LAHORE: The Punjab police on Thursday terminated the first and only Sikh traffic warden, Gulab Singh, over charges of provision of wrong information during his appointment in the police department. Gulab Singh, the only Sikh warden in Pakistan, had joined the Punjab Traffic Police in 2006. The traffic police had arranged a special uniform for him to let him continue with his religious identity. However, Superintendent Police (SP) Traffic City Division Asif Siddique terminated Singh over allegations of misconduct. It is pertinent to mention here that in 2008, Gulab Singh came to the limelight following the suspension over issuing a challan ticket to an ambulance driving on the wrong side of the road.
