Peshawar official Sara Tawab Umar performs duty while carrying infant daughter

PESHAWAR: Additional Assistant Commissioner Peshawar Sara Tawab Umar made waves as she supervised a drive against illegal encroachments and price hikes by shopkeepers in the city while carrying her five-month-old daughter.

In what is a rare sight world over, Tawab performed duty while carrying her infant daughter.

Tawab on Wednesday supervised action against encroachments and inspected shops which had illegally raised prices of commodities in Dilzak Road, Faqirabad, Hashtnagri and Gulbahar areas.

During the drive, the Peshawar district administration arrested 45 people who were involved in overpricing of commodities and encroachments.

Pictures of Tawab with her daughter while on-duty went viral on social media and several praised her for breaking stereotypes.
