I don't think it is a good thing!
Can you imagine a Major standing on the traffic signal controlling traffic like a warden? Have you ever seen a equivalent of the police doing this when a President or PM passes? I've seen Captains doing this in front of the Serena hotel signal, but this was the first time I saw a major.
Maybe it was just because it was a couple of minutes before the convoy was supposed to pass and major saheb thought to make an appearance!!! (I doubt it though).
Another interesting scene, a Honda Civic broke down on the side of the road, and all hell broke loose. Whistles ringing everywhere, those Mitsubishi jeeps being hurried to tow the car away from the road and it was utter chaos. In the end, 3/4 soldiers were pushing the car off the road!!
Looks like Mr Kayani takes his convoy security very seriously!! Gari bhi badal li hai!!!
